Seriously???? In our part of the real world, the firechief or ranking fire officer on the scene is the incident commander. The LEOs are in charge of traffic and investigating the accident. We park our trucks in basically the same manner. That is access and personnel protection.


I want to add this disclaimer: I am not against law enforcement officers. I have worked with some of the best and some not so good. I thought this was a bit off center though. I can tell some stories.

I read up on this one and to me it seems that the incident should not have happened. Do we have a "hot dog" Leo on the rampage here?

:shocked: Ths seems really odd, and very out of character...
Has anybody tried to confirm that this is exactly what happened? :dontknow:

totally wrong especially at a wreck scene! It should be handled after the call by supervisors from each side! We work very well with our counterparts.

I believe this happened before and the officer/dept were held liable!

First, this should never of happened.

Second, it's strange that they name the Fireman put in cuffs, but don't name the LEO with his panties in a bunch.

This was posted on FB and is apparently a real incident. The story on there was the firefighter was treating a injured person as well before being arrested.

This particular CHP needs a four month trip back through the high-stress intense physical training academy. I bet he couldn't graduate a second time.
