"When you head something like that about a fellow brother you're arms open up naturally its quite obvious with all the firefighters here all over Northwest Arkansas tonight its just a willingness to help others, especially one of our own," says Scott Mendham, with the Northwest Arkansas Natural F.O.O.L.S.
