BUTTE - Metals Bar and Grill is hosting a fundraiser Thursday evening for Butte Fire Capt. Brant Bristol who was seriously injured while fighting a house fire on May 7.
Proceeds from draft beer sales will go to the Bristol family to help them through his recovery.
Bristol fractured his neck when a roof beam collapsed on him during the fire. He had surgery and his family says his recovery is going well.
“Brant's doing better, he turned a corner in a positive direction about three days ago. He's still in a lot of pain and probably uncomfortable wearing that neck brace. He's not sleeping well, but he's got a positive attitude and he knows things are going to get better,” said Butte Fire Chief Zach Osborne.
The event at Metals Bar and Grille will be held from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Thursday.
