The Los Angeles Fire Department has released its annual report for 2025, highlighting key operations and personnel changes. The team responded to 124 callouts, matching the previous year’s total, while also dealing with major incidents like a pig barn fire and a California wildfire near Möhnesee. Several members were recognised for long service, promotions, and leadership appointments during the year.

The department’s callouts in 2025 remained steady at 124, the same as in 2024. Among the most serious incidents were a fire at a pig barn in Möhnesee-Echtrop and a wildfire in the same area. Additionally, the team assisted neighbouring municipalities on four occasions, demonstrating regional cooperation.

Leadership changes, promotions, and new equipment purchases mark a year of both recognition and preparation for future challenges. The department’s cross-municipal support and community contributions remain key aspects of its work.
