The fire department said members of its HOPE team, which stands for Home Outreach Prevention Education, went out to a large encampment off East 9th Street, on the east side of Fort Worth. They had visited the area on Saturday night to offer people rides to a shelter. <\/p>\n<p>The special unit within the Fort Worth Fire Department is conducting these routine checks at homeless encampments. However, not everyone wanted to leave. By the time the team returned on Sunday morning, everyone was ready to go.<\/p>\n<p>The firefighters had to carry four people up a steep incline to the transport bus because their shoes had frozen overnight in the rain. They also carried a man who was visibly exhausted and emotionally distressed after being exposed to the extreme cold overnight. <\/p>\n<p>But about halfway up the hill, he began having a seizure due to hypothermia. The man was rushed to the transport van for emergency care and later taken to the hospital in an ambulance.<\/p>\n<p>KDFW-TV FOX 4 Dallas<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"VIDEO: A homeless outreach team with the Fort Worth Fire Department may have saved a man\u2019s life on&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":139809,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[116,118,117,27],"class_list":{"0":"post-139808","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-fort-worth","8":"tag-fort-worth","9":"tag-fort-worth-headlines","10":"tag-fort-worth-news","11":"tag-texas"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139808","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=139808"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139808\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/139809"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=139808"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=139808"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=139808"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
