INMATE FIREFIGHTER STEALS AND CRASHES FIRE TRUCK

by Bob Walsh

At about 1050 p.m. on Saturday an Amador-El Dorado county fire unit, which included inmate firefighters, responded to a fire in Shingle Springs.  One of the inmates stole a CalFire fire truck and went for a joy ride, doing some property damage before he crashed the truck.  The truck was totaled.  The inmate was not.  I do, however, strongly suspect he will lose his minimum custody status and firefighting ORWD (off reservation work detail) status.  He is also likely to be charged for both escape and other issues as well.  What a dumb bastard.
