In a small town of South Fulton, Tennessee a fire station was called to come aid a house fire that was outside of town. But the station would not respond because the house was not in city limits and they did not pay there fee of $75 dollars. Because of this they let the families house burn to the ground along with all of their possessions and 3 of their pets. The firefighters did tend to the area for the fire though, but not for the families house, they contained the fire so it stayed in their lot and not the neighbors because they did pay the $75 fee. They would not allow the family to pay them on the spot because nobody would pay in advance if they would be able to do that.
I think that its ridiculous that they let the fire burn the house to the ground. I disagree with them doing that because it is their responsibility to help out people in need and save houses or buildings that are being consumed by flames. I think that they should have a rule that makes u pay more if u pay on the spot because either way people are going to lose more money if the whole house is destroyed. They have to change the rules inside this small town because that family is completely out of a house over a stupid little rule.
