Shot Shatters IL Station Window, Narrowly Misses FF

A Camp Jackson firefighter's close call came not at a fire but at the station. 

Miles Hogan was standing near a window at the firehouse just before midnight on New Year's Eve when the glass shattered. 

“I heard a pop against the window. So I retreated back,” Hogan told Fox 2. 

Fire Chief Chris Davis said he suspects someone celebrating the New Year fired a gun. Other shots were heard in the area that night. 

“I understand people want to celebrate, but people need to think,” Davis said. “This was a close call.”

Other firefighters in the station who were playing a board game went into a hallway sans window for safety.
