Fort Carson held their annual full scale emergency exercise on April 10th, 2024 near Evans Army Community Hospital. The exercise was designed to test emergency response capabilities. The Mountain Post simulated a large, fast moving wildland fire headed towards the South Navajo housing area. After Military Police began evacuation of the housing area, a fatal motor vehicle accident, requiring extrication, was staged on Titus Boulevard, one of the main egresses from the neighborhood. The Fountain Fire Department was summoned to assist with the accident since Fort Carson crews were tied up with the wildland fire.
