Pair Of Detroit Firemen Wreck Rig During Joy Ride

Some Detroit firefighters are under fire tonight for wrecking a rig and then trying to cover it up. Last month when two Detroit firefighters out of Engine 55 decided to use a rig for their personal ride - it did not end well. Sources say on March 30, two Detroit firefighters who work out of Engine 55 on Joy Road wanted to go out for a bit of a joy ride. They tried to convince the driver of the rig to get behind the wheel, but when he refused, a firefighter who had only been on the job a few years, decided to drive. Where they went is unknown but we’re told somewhere along the way he lost control of the expensive fire truck and slammed into the wall of the median near Southfield and I-96.
