Scenic Loop (TX) Fire Rescue’s Stolen Truck Found

Scenic Loop (TX) Fire Rescue’s stolen truck has been located.

Rescue 15, a 1996 Ford super duty “light rescue” truck with a service bed, went missing around noon on Thursday after someone broke into the station through its back door.

Authorities were concerned the suspect was headed to Oklahoma with the apparatus, but a call from Dayton (TX) Police solved the mystery. A railroad worker saw the abandoned truck with all its equipment in a ditch.

“2nd UPDATE – Rescue 15 has been recovered,” the department writes on Facebook. “The truck does not run and had to be towed back. All the contents of the truck were piled up outside and it appears that somebody was gonna come back and take the truck.

“There were no supplies missing other than a couple of the carrying bags for the cervical collars and for the pet oxygen supplies.”
