Four Frightened Pit Bulls Found Refuge In

FDNY Trucks After Blaze Breaks Out In Their Apartment

NY Daily News 7/4/09

Four frightened pit bulls found refuge in a fire truck early Saturday after a blaze broke out in their Chinatown apartment, officials said.

The well-behaved animals felt so at home inside the truck it took first responders to the fire at 147 Elizabeth St. 30 minutes to coax them out.

One dog sat in the driver's seat and others hung out in the storage compartments on the side of the truck.

Their owner was taken to New York Downtown Hospital with minor injuries as the single-alarm blaze was contained around 4 a.m.

The animals were taken to the ASPCA until the owner can pick them up.
