It would take a really odd duck of a first responder to just drive on past any type of fire at such a potentially disastrous place as a fertilizer plant.
Add the fact that his home was nearby and his best bud just flew past to work it and you have a very unlikely scenario.
How many of us here at WS are first responders or spouses/ parents/ close friends of one? Do you think for a split second that your adrenaline junky first responder would not immediately pull a U-ie and back up his or her colleagues?
I would liken this situation to a volunteer firefighter passing up a train derailment in their own neighborhood or a small grass fire next to a dry wooded area on a windy summer day. Could be easily handled or could destroy miles of forest and homes, endangering many lives.
I know that my cop hubby would be there lickety-split! This is what he trains for, it is his calling...he is compelled to offer assistance, take charge in a stressful situation, to be there for his buddies 24/7 if necessary. He can't NOT do it.
This dude's story doesn't fly.

100% agree. My father is a full-time for post firefighter and also a volunteer firefighter. They go to EVERY call when a volunteer fire fighter. And every big call at place of work. Every firefighter knows the danger of a fertilizer plant. He would go because of how big this fire could potentially get and want to help. And usually In a small town like where I come from and like West, the help is always needed. This story is not right.
