Redlands Firefighters battled an early-morning structure fire Wednesday that killed a resident’s pet dog.
Firefighters responded to the 2:25 a.m. call Wednesday, Jan. 30, in the 600 block of Forest Court after the sole resident returned home to find her house on fire.
It took 18 firefighters approximately 20 minutes to bring the blaze under control.
A display of historical photos, honoring the 125th anniversary of the City of Redlands, now hangs in the Redlands City Council Chambers.
The display includes archival photos of past anniversary celebrations, provided by the Heritage Room Archives at the A.K. Smiley Public Library. Former archivist Don McCue, recently named as the director of the Smiley Library, and current archivist Nathan Gonzales assisted in locating historic photos from the City’s 100th, 75th, 60th and 50th anniversary celebrations.
In addition, local photographer Stephen Wormser has created a collection of photos featuring past and current members of the Redlands City Council and Redlands Unified School District Board of Education, past presidents of the Redlands Chamber of Commerce and current members of the Redlands Police and Fire Departments. The Fire Department photo recreates a historic pose of department members and apparatus taken from overhead at the intersection of Cajon and Vine streets.
Another photo features the five current members of the City Council, who will serve during the anniversary year, culminating in November. Mayor Pro Tem Paul Foster chairs the 125th Anniversary Celebration Committee.
Join the Redlands Senior Centers as we take a trip to the Getty Villa in Malibu on Wednesday, Feb. 27. The fee will include admission and transportation to and from the museum. There you will be able to enjoy various displays available at the Getty Villa.

Officers working grant-funded traffic patrols also issued nearly 60 citations and arrested one person for driving under the influence between Jan. 21 and Jan. 28.
Officers will contact drivers passing through Friday’s checkpoint looking for signs of alcohol and/or drug impairment. Officers will also check drivers for proper licensing and will strive to delay motorists only momentarily. When possible, specially trained officers will be available to evaluate those suspected of drug-impaired driving. Drivers caught driving impaired can expect jail, license suspension, and insurance increases, as well as fines, fees, DUI classes and other expenses that can exceed $10,000.
