Investigators describe the truck as a black, newer model Ford F-250. The video shows two men pull up to the fire station and get out of the truck to urinate. Both men get back into the vehicle. The driver then does a doughnut in the gravel driveway, causing stones to fly up. The gravel ended up breaking several window panels. Investigators say the vandals caused about $3,000 in damage to the fire station. All of the window panels will be replaced.
