Report details wildfire that killed Glendale firefighter

A new federal report revealing new details about firefighters killed during a battle against a wildfire in Colorado over the summer. Our Annalisa Pardo looking into it. She joins us live. Good morning. The U.S. Department of Interior released its findings from its investigation and while it doesn't assign any blame, it does identify several key factors that they say contributed to the death of these firefighters. Glendale native Nick Hutcherson along with Emily Barker and Cindy Watson were killed in June while battling the Knowles Fire in western Colorado. Firefighter Nathan Matthews died from his injuries a month later. A fifth team member survived. The 95-page... Report says a helicopter was called in to pick up the firefighters and about 20 minutes later, a radio call said the helicopter could no longer safely land. Just nine seconds after that, one of the crews deployed their shelter. The survivor told investigators he held the shelter against the wind for 48 minutes while breathing into a small hole dug into the ground. The report says a combination of extreme fire behavior, strained communications and incomplete situational awareness of the firefighters. They say in part, quote, nothing will bring Nick back. So the people who can prevent another family from living through this pain have a responsibility to act. We want Nick's memory to help bring other firefighters home. The Department of Interior says the goal of this investigation is to improve safety and also prevent similar tragedies in the future. We'll send it back to you. All right, Annalisa, thank you.
