L.A. County Fire Captain Ron Haralson says that includes helmets, gloves and hoses. He says they're trying to do what they can to help.

First responders in Ukraine should soon get a shipment of surplus equipment from their colleagues here in Los Angeles.

The county fire department will be sending helmets, gloves, hoses, and similar gear overseas, according to L.A. County Fire Captain Ron Haralson, who said they're joining city firefighters and other county departments in trying to do what they can to help. "As a county employee, as a fire captain with 30 years of service, it makes me feel good knowing that my home station — with the support of my home department, with the support of the Board of Supervisors, Supervisor [Janice] Hahn — has stepped up and agreed to support these efforts," Haralson said.

An aerial view shows firemen working in the rubble of a residential building which was hit by the debris from a downed rocket in Kyiv on March 17, 2022.
