Prince George's County officials are vowing to look into possible criminal charges against firefighters involved in a brawl as a house burned earlier this week.
9 News first broke the story, which has outraged firefighters and county officials alike. Two career firefighters claim someone deliberately shut off their air tanks and ripped off some of their protective gear while they fought the house fire on Standish Drive in Landover Hills.
The two firefighters, assigned to the Landover Hills station, received first and second degree burns. The reports claim that firefighters from the all-volunteer Kentland Station got into a battle over who was going to put out the fire.
Our Gary Reals has obtained exclusive home video showing just a small part of what took place. The Kentland volunteer you see in the video has been suspended in Prince Georges County. But that doesn't involve his job status with the DC Fire Department.
