Fire Department Pushes in New Truck

The Peachtree City Fire and Rescue Department recently received a new fire engine.

Before Engine 82 is placed in to service, there's a push-in ceremony. This tradition dates back to the 1800s. It is quite literally firefighters, police officers, city employees and the public pushing the fire truck into the fire house.

The truck is blessed by clergy and washed down too. Check out the highlights from this community ceremony:

Sign up for Citizen Police Academy

How do cops do their job?

The Peachtree City Police Department aims to answer that question at its annual citizens' police academy.

Now in its 21st year, the citizens' police academy teaches residents how crime scenes are processed, how traffic laws are enforced, and how officers take a suspect into custody while protecting themselves and others from harm.

The 10-week course also includes a ride-along with an officer and a tour of the 911 communications center.

Applications for the citizens' police academy are now being accepted. Participants must be at least 18 years old and pass a background check.
