Chattahoochee County Police and state arson investigators are trying to figure out who is responsible for a series of fires over the last few days in Cusseta.
“We were actually on a call in the ambulance then we get a call on the radio saying that there’s a car on fire, and then it comes out that there’s two cars on fire at the fire station,” said Andy Purdy, paramedic.
According to Purdy, someone set his and his partner’s car on fire early Friday morning while they were parked at the fire station in Cusseta. An unsettling moment, Purdy says has him hot.
“It’s really set us back a lot because now we’re going to have to replace it and come up with a down payment,” said Purdy. “It really makes my anxiety level go off the chart.” Residents also voiced concern over the fires.
“I don’t know why they’d come out here, because this is a pretty friendly town,” said a Cusseta resident.
