CASCADE TOWNSHIP, Mich. — While firefighters were putting out a fire that damaged a Walmart Saturday morning, they didn’t notice a man in a motorized wheelchair had stolen some of their equipment.
WNEP reported that security footage showed that while firefighters were away from their truck, a man in a motorized wheelchair rolled up, grabbed the equipment and left.
Among the stolen items were an oxygen tank, firefighting mask and backpack.
Deputies later found and arrested the man and the equipment was returned to the Ada Township (Mich.) Fire Department, albeit slightly damaged, according to the report.
