People turn to firefighters for help during all kinds of emergencies, but this one might actually be a first. Wayne Township firefighters woke up in the middle of the night to a woman frantically pushing their doorbell. "As many times as the doorbell on the firehouse was pushed, the firefighters were quite certain that something bad was going on outside," said Wayne Township Fire Capt. Mike Pruitt. The woman was upset and saying she needed treatment. Not for herself, but for her pet raccoon. The reason? She said the raccoon had been exposed to a large amount of marijuana.
