John McMaster, the only responding member of Baltimore City’s Fire Department who survived a rowhouse collapse earlier this week, was released from the hospital on Thursday.
But Baltimore’s Fire Chief said in a statement Tuesday that McMaster’s condition has been upgraded to fair as “he is conscious and alert.”
Fellow firefighters Kenny Lacayo, Kelsey Sadler and Lt. Paul Butrim were all killed by the collapsing structure.

“A heartfelt moment for #BCFD. FF John McMaster was released from [Maryland Shock Trauma] FF McMaster is truly a #HERO. We will continue to pray for his health & strength as he recovers,” the Baltimore Fire Department tweeted.
