Pittsburgh firefighters photographed using city equipment to work on a TV satellite dish at one of their homes will be fined a total of $1,227.
The fines stem from an incident photographed in September in which five men, apparently firefighters, used city ladders to remove the dish from the Westwood home of Thomas R. Pilch, a fireman since 1998.
James Genco, a Democratic committeeman from Lawrenceville, presented the photographs to City Council on Oct. 12.
The captain of Truck Company 30 in Elliott "accepted full responsibility" for the incident and was fined $1,000, according to a letter by Joe King, president of the firefighters union, to council.
