Today in the blotter in the local paper our tax dollars at work

- The WFD was dispatched to a service call at 58 West Palmer Bend. Truck 104 responded non emergency with 4 from District 4. Arrived on location. The home owner has a CO detector in the living room that has been chirping for a couple of days. She is unable to change the batteries and wishes the fire department to assist her. The sofa in the living room was moved, the home owners ladder was used to access the detector. The batteries she had bought were incorrect. She did not wish us to put the detector back up, she would have someone come and put up a new detector tomorrow. There were 2 other CO detectors in the home.
