FIREFIGHTER KILLED BY FALLING TREE AT WILDLAND FIRE 
We regret to pass on that a H otshot Firefighter from Vermont was killed this afternoon when he was struck by a tree while fighting the Strawberry Fire.
The U.S. Forest Service is investigating the death of Firefighter Justin Beebe of Bellows Falls Vt.  He was a member of the Lolo Hotshots, based in Region 1 with the U.S. Forest Service.
The Strawberry Fire started Monday and is being managed jointly by Great Basin Incident Management Team 7, the National Park Service and the Bureau of Land Management.  More than 400 Firefighters are fighting the 4,600-acre blaze about 5 miles west of Baker near the Nevada-Utah line.
Our condolences to all those affected. RIP.
