A volunteer firefighter accused a career firefighter of an assault when they should have been fighting a house fire Sunday afternoon. Firefighters quickly controlled a smoky blaze on Ruatan Street in Berwyn Heights, Maryland, but afterward, a volunteer complained about being pushed by a Prince George's County Fire and EMS officer during an argument. "There was definitely a visible disagreement on the front patio, but I couldn't hear anything," said a neighbor who asked to remain anonymous. "But you could tell they were getting into some type of argument." "Kind of like a little nudge and such," neighbor Caitlin Goforth said. "Not punching or kicking or anything like that."
