Cumberland County PA - Units were dispatched for a garage
fire @ 0438 AM and arriving @ 443 AM. Shortly after arriving and deploying the
initial attack lines and before Fire Police had the roadway closed to traffic
this genius decided to drive between a tower truck on Side A and the attack
pumper which was located across the street from the address. Vehicle drove over
the backup line which was deployed around the front of the Engine and stopped
only after striking the attack line across his windshield and nearly striking
the pump opr. PD yanked the guy out of the car...no INTOX just STUPID!
LL – Ensure traffic control is established EARLY upon
arrival either by blocking /PD/FP
