FIRE AUTHORITY SAYS 'THIS IS ONLY A TEST'

Smyrna Ready Mix donated a concrete truck to Poudre Fire Authority for a training exercise set for July 10-11. It will provide firefighters with "a realistic opportunity to practice stabilization, lifting, access, and rescue techniques involving heavy commercial vehicles," the fire authority said. "It may have arrived on wheels, but there is no guarantee it will leave that way." [Photo: Poudre Fire Authority]
