- The fire department is warning that it may take longer to respond to calls after a firetruck was stolen and another was seriously damaged.
maybe they should look into the reason why the district attorney's keep letting these criminals go. It's making life hell for everybody working hard and paying their taxes.
So much crime, it's depressing.
How much of a low life do you need to be to be going around stealing fire trucks??? I mean damn! I'm a volunteer fire fighter and ambulance person, I just don't get it. Even people I wouldn't trust alone on my property know better than to mess with emergency trucks and buildings. Its just something you don't do. Who knows the next person that needs their help might be you, the person that stole the truck!
This should be made a federal crime
@@joeduffied7627 it is a federal crime?
VFD as well. Horrible. Absolute scumbags.
These kind of crimes need to be rated as terrorist action, and handled the appropriate lengthy sentences to deter such lowlife criminality
No. No more neocon BS.
I cant even imagie this. As someone who was a vollie back in the 90s.. Our small village had some nice equipment but would have been so noticeable if someone was rolling around in a PIerce or a Seagrave Firetruck.. How does the public not even notice?
That is so stupid to mess with the trucks
Cameras at station always a plus
Yet another sign our country is history. American dream is officially dead. R.I.P. It was nice while it lasted.
A firedepartment near us had all its equipment stripped
did they get the unit back
Somebody cutter a hole in the back wall and stoled battery’s of my county fire truck a year ago and they didn’t notice until they had a call and the house burned down because of low life people
Lies. Everything is checked by each crew at the start of their shift.
Some departments don't do daily checks buddy.
who would be that stupid to steal a fire truck 😐
So sorry to hear you're about your Riggs be safe 🚒 🇺🇸.......
😂imagine stealing a firetruck💀
Former member did it
Someone getting fired
Why would somebody steal from and damage equipment belonging to an agency whose sole purpose is to protect the community??? And if they live in the same community, don’t they realize they’re technically stealing from themselves? Their tax dollars paid for it.
Yea, this was an inside job for sure.
Always keep someone in the house...
I thought that was common practice 😂
@@cheems5643 right, it's all vol. guess they don't have anyone full time. Where I'm from we rely upon almost extensively vol, however we still have full time EMS/Para and FFII on the clock around the clock, total of three in the house at all times, exception being a call then it drops to one, just to man the house, hell I even visited my brother's house up in the City standing around call came in had me tone it out and man the house til the rest made it in, brother left on the wagon, Chief on the truck and they had me roll on the squad(farm boy with entrapment in ag situations) ladder was called when Chief got there and found out it wasn't just a container but rather an overhead bin partially collapsed with missing workers suspected grain entrapment. IDK, it didn't matter, there was always someone in the House, ALWAYS. Just like manning the desk at the PD, always someone there.
Apparently you don't know how tiny volunteer stations work. Lmao
That's fine in the communities that can support that but the small departments simply can't operate that way
Volunteer departments are not manned most of the time.
It’s sad and true but that’s why I don’t live in a small town.
no camera?
We should build a zipline for them. Or maybe give the police more military weapons.. that will help them.
Drugs are bad.
They can apply funding from fema and grants get new fire trucks and equipment
horrible reporting. was the truck that hit the ambo the stolen brush truck?? if not why even put that into this story???
Why would anyone want to outright steal a piece of Life and Property Saving Equipment, and steal the radios, and batteries from another one ? I can't help but wonder if this was done by a disgruntled former firefighter as an act of revenge. Most Fire Apparatus Vehicles no longer have ignition keys for that reason, but even to gain access to either Truck, it had to be someone who was either a dept member, former member that still had access to the station, or someone who knew someone who is a member. You can't just walk up, and open the bay doors, and jump in and take a truck. It had to be someone who is familiar with how the fire Service operates, and is familiar with the trucks.
It's a pickup. Lots of people know how to drive those. Batteries are valuable. Lots stolen from farm equipment parked near fields. The radios were easy to grab and looked valuable.
lol stolen fire truck 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Difference between an eng & a truck.
Oh well get a garden hose.
LOL
That's not even funny
@tomv5988, as a Firefighter, I'll remember to bring you just a garden hose if your house ever catches on fire, and you happen to live within my district.
