SANTA BARBARA, Calif. — A viral photo depicts the exhaustion of the firefighting crews battling to keep California safe from the Thomas Fire.
KSBY reported that the photo, posted by Michele Newell on Facebook, shows seven firefighters fast asleep on the ground nearby Westmont College, which they helped save from the wildfire.
Newell, whose son Dylan is shown in the photo with his colleagues, said the firefighters had just finished “cutting break above Westmont College baseball fields where Dylan played ball fall of 2015.”
