Firefighters helped a man whose wheel broke off his van in a parking lot next to the fire department on Thursday. A blog post from the Madison Fire Department said the crew was told that the man needed to move his vehicle into a parking spot to avoid getting a ticket. However, the man could not afford a tow truck. The post said firefighters tried replacing the wheel but were unsuccessful, so they borrowed a car jack from one of their vehicles. Using the jack, they suspended the van and placed a series of blocks down and pushed the van into a parking spot.
