ALTOONA, Pa. -- Police say four volunteer firefighters called in five false alarms earlier this year because they enjoyed the thrill of riding in firetrucks. The Logan Township Volunteer Fire Department has suspended the men, and police have charged them with making the false alarms. Police believe the men are responsible only for the five alarms, but they say even one is too many. The suspects were all probationary members with fewer than 90 days of service with the fire department.
