Rest in power

The Houston Fire Department mourns the loss of Firefighter Brandy Allinience, who passed away Tuesday, Dec. 16, following a courageous battle with cancer believed to be related to her service in the fire department. She was 39.

We ask the community to keep Firefighter Allinience’s family, friends, and her fellow firefighters in their thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Keep our brothers from station 104 in your thoughts and prayers

Earlier this morning, Engine 104 was blocking traffic on on US 59 North near exit 151 in north Houston for a motor vehicle accident when it was struck by an 18-wheeler.

All four members were transported to a local hospital with injuries of varying severities. All are expected to fully recover and three remain hospitalized.

“Blocking traffic on the freeway is one of the most dangerous tasks we do," Fire Chief Thomas Muñoz said. "We’re extremely grateful that every member of Engine 104 is expected to recover, and we ask drivers to slow down and move over when they see emergency crews working.”

HFD will share additional updates as they become available. Houston Police Department is investigating the cause of the accident.

Station 52 received a visit from Fire Chief Munoz today. He came by to wish Captain Martinez well on his upcoming retirement and also gave him some gifts as well. Thanks for the visit Chief.
