When firefighters heard the sound of their dumpster being tipped and rumblings happening inside they knew something wasn’t right.
With a large mother bear lurking in the vicinity distressed by the situation, firefighters dropped everything to help free her cubs who were stuck inside.
As one Truckee Meadows Fire Department officer kept the nervous mom distracted, Ed Martin bravely approached the dumpster and opened the door. Slowly three baby bear cubs cautiously walked out and quickly scampered away to be reunited with their mom.
There appears to never be a dull moment in this fire station.
