A firefighter in Kokomo, Ind. will have to pay through the hose, er, nose, after using a fire truck to water his lawn.

The clever use of resources earned him a $120 fine, as well as a per-gallon cost of $0.35.

Really slow news day…….

I heard this quite a while ago.. not sure if it was the same guy, or a seperate incident. Wonder if he'd watered his superiors' lawns, they would have objected? lol
