Information is sparse at this hour; here’s what we know:

Kootenai County Deputies are asking residents to avoid the area.

Northern Lakes Fire Protection Chief Pat Riley reported that firefighters were allegedly shot at while attending to a brush fire along East Nettleton Gulch Road.

The Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office alerted residents, stating: “Active shooter at Canfield Mountain. Injuries have been reported, though the extent remains unknown. Please avoid the area.”

Fire teams had to retreat, leaving the brush fire as a continuing threat. Authorities advise nearby residents to stay vigilant and cautious, as the situation continues to develop.

Riley spoke of his reaction to the shooting:

“My immediate reaction was completely heartbroken. We trained for this. You never want to see it in your own community.” 

He emphasized that firefighters remain focused on their duties despite the circumstances. However, fire suppression efforts have been halted, said Chief Riley.

Despite the challenges, evacuations are not currently anticipated. Residents are advised to stay alert to their surroundings and await further information as it becomes available.

Witnesses say the law enforcement presence is heavy, as one would expect:

RedState will provide you with updates to the story as necessary. If it is a planned ambush, it’s a sick plot indeed. Hopefully they’ll catch the perpetrator in short order.
