A Los Angeles Fire Department firefighter was injured after falling off a ladder while battling a house fire in Arlington Heights on Saturday evening. 

As one of the firefighters attempted to climb from the aerial ladder of an LAFD fire truck to a ladder going into a second-floor window of the home, he slipped and fell to the ground. He immediately stood up and began to climb back up the ladder after he was checked on by other crew members. 

LAFD officials say that he suffered a minor injury but that he did not require hospitalization.
