Thank you @c_vandergriff @CBSNewsTexas for covering the heroic actions of our @WSPDTX team today.
Kudos to Sgt. John Banner, Corporal Carlos Valladares, Officer Wesley Gregory, and @WESTCOMMTX Dispatcher Kim Podsednik on their quick actions this morning during a major fire.
Sgt. Banner was proactively patrolling and stopped to fuel up his patrol vehicle. He saw smoke nearby and immediately responded to the area. When he arrived, he saw a fire at the Red Roof Inn.
This news account provides a glimpse into the quick actions by this team! The fire had not even been reported yet. Thankfully no injuries and we have one suspect detained on an arson investigation.

It’s all fun and games… until someone gets hurt 🛷
Responding to a call for help after a girl hit her head sledding. The paramedics told me she should be fine, but she’s going to get checked out at the hospital.

Since what’s coming down is mostly rain now, it’s actually helping clear the icy mush off the roads. I-30 in Fort Worth is looking better than it was just an hour ago.
But road conditions still aren’t good! #FirstalertDFW @CBSNewsTexas

We’re tagging along with @MedStarEMSInfo crews today. Majority of calls they’re getting right now are for accidents on the roads. Falls as well. Be careful out there!
#FirstAlertDFW @CBSNewsTexas
We’re going west on I-30 near downtown Fort Worth. Roads are nasty, and there’s a lot more traffic than I expected in these conditions. #firstalertDFW @CBSNewsTexas
Snow hasn’t stopped in northeast Tarrant County! #firstalertDFW @CBSNewsTexas

Snow, snow, snow! Now taking over lots of #DFW.
HEAVY SNOW banding is also occurring in some northern spots. Darker blue is heavier snow.
