PUEBLO — The Pueblo Fire Department's new ladder truck breaks a state record. It was unveiled before a crowd at Fire Station Four.
Officials say the ladder is 125 feet tall, the tallest in Colorado. They say the extra height will help with the following:
- water resources
- difficult fires
- accessing high buildings
"Now, we'll have a much better reach to get to the tenth floor of a building... and it's just a lot safer for the citizens," said Tim Trujillo with the Pueblo Fire Department.
This is the first ladder truck to be added to the Pueblo Fire Department since 2008.
