The Gregg Township Volunteer Fire Department was given a donated water pumper to help them have the equipment they need, to save lives. But it wasn't the first donation they were given.
In January, Gregg Township firefighters were at a fire, trying get water from their pumper...it wasn't working.
Scott Breon, Chief for the Gregg Township Volunteer Fire Company says they took it in to be repaired.
Port Matilda donated their water pumper to Gregg Township, but when firefighters practiced using it, there was an accident.
"They were pumping water and the truck actually managed to get itself into gear, and it ran away from the guys outside trying to pump," Breon, said. "Luckily no one was injured, it did some damage to a utility pole and it tore the door off of our newly donated engine."
Still, without a pumper Gregg Township had to use a special unit which only held 300 gallons of water, instead of the 1,000 they needed.
That's when Nittany Valley Volunteer Fire Department donated their pumper, free of charge.
