Rockford FIre Department

Rockford's Police and Fire Departments are used to rescuing people in this community, but today they are on a mission to rescue Christmas!

Here's your chance to be "the most important person they'll never see" as a 911 Telecommunicator in Rockford.

This event answers the question, who is stronger...Rockford Police or Rockford Fire, and raises $ for an awesome organization.

Just because buildings aren't on fire, that doesn't mean that the Rockford Fire Department is just sitting around.

Compared to the 1st nine months of 2018, violent crimes, property crimes, robberies, aggravated assaults, shots fired and auto thefts are all down.

Yes, it's exactly what you think it is. Rockford's Fire and Water departments are throwing the best party for anyone, especially kids, to cool off.

Firefighters battled a blaze that had fully engulfed a playground near McIntosh Elementary School at 525 N Pierpont Ave. in Rockford.

We're all familiar with the image of a firefighter getting a stuck cat out of a tall tree, but Rockford firefighters had a different scenario to deal with Monday.

Rockford Fire responded to a playground fire last night around 5:30 p.m., and they need our help finding the person who is responsible for starting it.

This video beautifully shows exactly how much Rockford's first responders sacrifice on a daily basis to ensure our safety.
