Local Third Grader Rides to School in Fire Truck

A local third grader got a very special ride to school Wednesday. A Shawnee Heights firefighter picked up Caleb Addington in a big red fire truck for Wednesday morning's trip to Tecumseh North Elementary.

Caleb earned the honor by winning a poster contest for fire safety. He even got to dress in full firefighter's gear, including his own grandfather's helmet.

Caleb's class even got to take a look at the fire truck and have a quick question and answer session before school.
