Bullock has been fighting fires for the last 10 years. The injury occurred near Red Lake during a controlled burn, according to WorkSafeBC.
“Dylan’s journey to recovery will be a long one, and will rely on a lot of support from all aspects of his day to day life,” fundraising organizer Maria Cihlar posted on the GoFundMe page (search “
Dylan’s Journey to Recovery"). “Myself and his family would like to thank everyone in advance for any donations, as they will be helping Dylan through the next few months, especially during rehab for his arm and neck.”
Danielle Marchand, a spokeswoman for the B.C. Government and Service Employees’ Union, confirmed to the Vancouver Sun that Bullock is a member of the union and said the accident happened during a controlled burn.
