LeSourdsville Fire Dept Gets New Grass-Fighting Truck

LeSourdsville Fire Department bought a unique new truck costing $7,000 from Anderson Indiana. The vehicle features a rear view similar to a small pickup but a front platform for two firefighters with four foot rail and fog hoses connected to a 200 gallon bed tank. It reduces time to reach grass fires and can pump 100 gallons per minute for about eight minutes with both hoses. The department, contracted to Lemon Township, previously had 33 runs last year, mostly grass fires, and already operates a 1937 pumper and a 1952 tanker.
