We are conducting a prescribed burn at the bottom of KAWINA ROAD in BICKLEY today. We will be on site until just after lunch time.
We spent our Thursday night training relay pumping

We attended 3 illegal burns in 3 days this week. Don't forget the City of Kalamunda is in restricted burning season. Check out www.kalamunda.wa.gov.au/Your-Neighbourhood/Fire-Emergency/Important-Dates
And when you do your 1x1 pile, please have a firebreak and firefighting equipment, and don't do it unless it's lower than veryhigh.

Attempted Theft
We share a complex with our good friends and colleagues Kalamunda State Emergency Service. In the early hours of this morning, we believe we interrupted someone attempting to steal a number of items of value from our complex.
Fortunately, we were only away from station for a short period during the night, and we arrived on station just as someone was trying to steal valuable equipment.
If you live in the Walliston area and heard or saw suspicious vehicles last night between midnight and 3am, please give Crime Stoppers WA a call on 1800 333 000
Makes me so angry, if it was there home or on of a friend that was in danger from a fire or incident that piece of vital equipment could have saved the situation. They would be the first to complain Keep up the good work !!

Will check our cameras
We have the car going up Shirley road with trailer around 2:30am on our surveillance. Can only see shape

It's every bloody night in Walliston. If it's not the hoon goon squad it's bloody thieving idiots. Kalamunda central has had multiple smash and grabs over the weeks. These creeps know that police response is at least 20-30 minutes away, ever since the local police station was shut down.
