As seen around … Evergreen Park

This from Wayne VanBeveren:

I’ve attached a couple photos of a mini-pumper I found at 87th and Western in Evergreen Park. It’s a Pierce on a Ford Ranger chassis. I don’t anything else about it. It does look like someone refurbished the bench seat inside with a “CFD” scramble and it has a sticker on the dash that says “Engine 1 for radio communication. The officer’s side of the pump panel looks like it used to say “JRV.”

This from Asher Heimermann:

The Milwaukee Fire Department responded to a house fire near North 24th Street and Garfield Avenue around 1:30 AM on Friday, December 24th. Originally reported as a rubbish fire, first arriving firefighters found a house on fire. 
 
As firefighters worked to extinguish the blaze, the roof collapsed. No injuries were reported at the scene and there is no word if anyone was home at the time.
