Pikeville eyes new ladder truck

Members of the Pikeville Volunteer Fire Department got a first-hand look at what could be their new ladder truck last week. The fire truck has a 115-foot ladder in order to aid in fires among tall structures.

Representatives from Rosenbauer, a leading fire truck manufacturer, brought the hefty vehicle to Pikeville for hands-on and high-flying experience.
