LOS ANGELES (CNS) - The California Governor s Office of Emergency Services announced today that seven new fire engines were transferred to agencies across the Southland.
The Type VI fire engines were transferred to Los Angeles and Orange County fire jurisdictions as part of the California Fire and Rescue Mutual Aid System, according to a Cal OES statement. The engines are used in wildland and urban fire responses due to their versatility, maneuverability, off-road abilities and firefighting capabilities.

The LA County Sheriff’s Department says it’s pulled off the largest series of pot farm busts in the United States Morning, everyone How y all doing? Good. Wow, this is a big crowd.
The op started yesterday at 5am with a briefing by Sheriff Villanueva. And there were so many people involved, they had to use a church north of Lancaster to accommodate more than 400 deputies, soldiers, and federal agents. And I want to say this is going to be one of those moments in time where one word engaging in the largest operation the Sheriff s Department has ever done. And this is going to dwarf all other operations.
