When it comes to battling blazes and fighting crime, local firefighters and law enforcement aren't left out in the cold - or the heat. A local company does their part to ensure that our hardworking responders have backup when they're facing the elements.
For a few years now, Ben Franklin Transit has actually been offering up their services by sending buses and even vans to properties where local law enforcement and fire crews are dealing with either hot or cold temperatures.
In the past, they've brought out buses for house fires, apartment fires, and even hostage situations in cases where there's a need for an air-conditioned space to cool the responders down; or, like today, a heated space to warm them up.
