Garland Fire Department employees received an award for saving a woman from a burning house during the winter storm in February, 2021.
Captain Michael Arriaga, firefighter and paramedic Kristen Breaux and driver engineer and paramedic Brandon Ethridge were honored at a Garland City Council meeting last week.On Feb. 15, 2021, on the second house fire of the night, the trio arrived at a house with “fire blowing through the roof,” Lee said. Fire was dropping into the kitchen and living room, he said.
Arriaga and Breaux entered the house and found a woman trapped in a hospital bed. The three worked together to rescue her. The trio then went back into the home in search of another person, but didn’t find any one else inside. At the time, Breaux was still considered a rookie, Lee said. She had only been working as a firefighter for a year, state records show.
