Long Beach’s fire chief will retire next month, the city announced Tuesday. Mike DuRee, a 24-year veteran of the LBFD who was picked to lead the department in 2012, will leave his post on Oct. 5, according to the announcement. DuRee is a Long Beach native and a fourth-generation firefighter. “I have been honored to serve as the Fire Chief for the Long Beach Fire Department," DuRee said in a statement. "It was my dream, as a child, to follow in the footsteps of my father, grandfather and great-grandfather and join the Long Beach Fire Department." He started at the LBFD as a firefighter in 1994 before rising through the ranks. The city’s announcement praised him for creating the department’s homeless outreach—or HEART—team, diversifying the department's recruiting system and boosting community engagement with projects like reforming the LBFD’s Community Emergency Response Team.

Long Beach police are investigating after a gunman opened fire on a group of people a few blocks away from Washington Middle School Monday night. The gunfire started around around 8 p.m. near 15th Street and Daisy Avenue, according to Long Beach Police Department spokeswoman Nancy Pratt. That's when a gunman approached the group of men or boys and started shooting but apparently missed, she said. Nobody reported being wounded, according to Pratt. The gunman fled on foot before police arrived, she said. Investigators think the shooting may be gang-related, according to Pratt. Police couldn't immediately provide a description of the gunman.
