Video clip - German police use water cannon trucks

2017-07-06 Thread Peter Szerlagi
https://twitter.com/CNNnewsroom/status/883036081393770496

I dont think there is a single police water canyon truck in the USA -
unless NYPD has one

they look identical to airport crash trucks - big tank of water - pump
& roll capability - roof turrets

It didnt fall down

Boston's 6th alarm

I was concerned - when you have big holes in the roof - I could see
the place falling down like a house of cards - especially if some
heavy a/c units fell to the water logged floor below - but I guess
them columns and girders are strong enough to take a little fire
