Firefighters set station ablaze
Two firefighters are accused of setting a blaze at a city firehouse over the weekend that was quickly extinguished, the Fire Department said Sunday.
The two men have been arrested on suspicion of using a flammable liquid to set a door on fire at the Manhattan station early Saturday. A firefighter saw smoke entering the firehouse and alerted on-duty colleagues, who put the flame out. No one was hurt.
Michael Izzo, 30, and Richard Capece, 31, did not work at the firehouse where the blaze was set. They both face felony charges of arson, reckless endangerment and criminal mischief, the department said.
The Uniformed Firefighters Association did not immediately return a call seeking comment, and a message left at a home number listed under Izzo's name was not immediately returned. Capece's home number was unlisted.
In a statement, Fire Commissioner Nicholas Scoppetta called the fire "an outrageous, depraved act."
So where are your heroes now ?

i might say that one answer became in part the final option, that Rudy vanished while the cameras did. i might additionally upload that usually (nevertheless i don't have information on the subject of the NYFD) firefighters are overwhelmingly against unlawful immigration. a minimum of they're around here. And Rudy is as idiotic as Bush on that one. i think of Romney is a extra advantageous candidate, as properly as Tancredo and Thompson.

I'd have to agree with others that you can't condemn all firemen for two people. However, I see your point. It has gotten to the point where firemen are worshipped like heroes in this country. Yes, they do a dangerous job but so do many other people who don't get the same amount of attention.

That is only 2 people out of hundreds of NYC firefighters.
Do the actions of 2 people now suddenly determine the actions of everyone who shares the same job?

Are you serious? You are going to base your question on one stupid incident? Maybe you should do a little more research before bashing people. Fire fighters EVERYWHERE help save peoples lives. not just NYC.

"Arrested on suspicion".
Innocent, until proven guilty.
Don't blame the entire lot for the mistake of two people.
