Ironic Tragedy

The tragedy is that a Fall River Mass. man was killed two nights ago when he fell asleep while cooking a meal. Firefighters found heavy fire showing from the three-decker on arrival. Water supply was hampered by a car that was blocking the hydrant right in front of the house and the firefighters were forced to locate another hydrant a few blocks away. The ironic part is that it was the victims car that was illegally blocking the hydrant.

Freaky.... :eek: :eek:

I'll be damned. This "The life you save could be your own" stuff is true.

That sounds more like a "sucks to be you" situation. Let that be a lesson to ya, don't block fire hydrants! No go spread the word.

Keep your head down and your powder dry.
