Under-age Firemen Caught Drinking

Moscow Fire Chief Ed Button (pictured) is calling the citation of two underage resident volunteer firefighters caught drinking at a city fire station early Sunday morning an isolated incident that should not affect the public’s vision of the agency. University of Idaho students Nicholas Turco, 20, and John Westberg, 18, were found drinking alcohol in a vehicle in the parking lot of the Moscow Volunteer Fire Department’s Station No. 3 on North Main Street around 2:45 a.m. Sunday and cited for minor in possession, according to Moscow Police Chief David Duke, who said no other firefighters were contacted during the incident/ Brandon Macz , Moscow-Pullman Daily News.
