CHICAGO, IL – A veteran firefighter with the Chicago Fire Department was killed in the line of duty early Wednesday morning while responding to a garage fire on the city’s West Side.
Captain David Meyer, a member of the department since 1996 and currently assigned to Truck 29, tragically lost his life while battling a blaze in the 5500 block of West Crystal Street in the Austin neighborhood.
Fire Department officials announced his death during a press conference later that morning.
According to CFD, the fire was reported around 4:00 a.m. and involved a detached garage located behind a multifamily apartment building.
Witnesses stated the flames may have originated in nearby alley trash cans before spreading to the garage.
During firefighting operations, the roof of the structure collapsed, fatally injuring Captain Meyer.
Despite immediate rescue efforts, he succumbed to his injuries.
All residents from the adjacent apartments were able to evacuate safely, and no additional injuries have been reported.
Captain Meyer leaves behind a wife, daughters, and a son.
The Chicago Fire Department expressed deep sorrow over the loss, stating in a message posted on X (formerly Twitter), “This is a sad day for CFD and for the city of Chicago.”
The cause of the fire and the events leading to the structural collapse remain under investigation.
The city and fire department are offering support to Captain Meyer’s family and fellow firefighters during this time of mourning.
Captain Meyer is remembered not only for his decades of service, but for the courage and dedication he demonstrated in protecting the people of Chicago.
