"Dude, where's my fire engine?"

From KTVB - Boise:

Fire truck joy ride lands man in jail

The large green truck had its lights and sirens on, so deputies called dispatchers to see if they knew what the truck was responding to. Canyon County dispatchers were unaware of any emergency situation...

Deputies found out the truck belonged to the Murphy Reynolds Wilson Volunteer Fire Department in Owyhee County. Deputies stopped the vehicle around 1 a.m. on Highway 45 at Stage Coach Road. The only occupant in the truck was... Winston Keith Goering III, of Murphy, Idaho... His blood alcohol level was twice the legal limit according to deputies...


Via The Mountain Goat, who says:

Dude, where's the fire?... I have to think this tops the Boise Zamboni guys.
