Had the local fire company been on the scene that woman wouldnt have been there. I know for a fact that the fire company has missed multiple calls over the past few months due to the lack of members due to complications with the fire chief. For that kind of call they did not need any of the ashland units they could have had atlas engine 21 beaverdale engine 22 or strong engine 25 respond. The locust gap Fire Co. is a complete joke and waste of time.

Sorry

It's a shame what happened to someone who was trying to help, but sometimes you need to use your head. You do not stand in the middle of a road in the dark.
