One of the firefighters injured while battling a fire in north-central Washington underwent his first surgery but remains in critical condition, reports khq.com.
Susan Gregg, a spokeswoman for Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, says Daniel Lyon of Puyallup went through a surgery on Friday that sought to remove damaged tissue.
Lyon, a 25-year-old reserve police officer in Milton, was burned over 60 percent of his body during the fast-moving blaze in Twisp, Washington on Wednesday.
Gregg says Lyon remains in the Intensive Care Unit. She says he is unable to speak because he’s on a respirator, but is able to respond when his parents and others speak to him.
