During the RC car’s maiden voyage, it crashed into the drainage system.
Fire captain David Rogers said the firefighters received an unofficial request to retrieve the toy through a non-emergency channel. The firefighters were in service but not doing anything at the time, so they decided to help the youngster who lost his Christmas toy. By the looks of the pictures, the good deed was appreciated by the family and certainly will cement the Willowfork Fire Department’s spot on Santa’s nice list.
