A firefighter responding to an accident on a Southern California freeway was arrested Tuesday after getting into a dispute with an officer about where he’d parked the fire truck.
The Chula Vista, Calif. fire department was on scene at a rollover accident Tuesday night when a highway patrol officer arrived and told one of the firefighters to move the fire engine from the freeway’s center divide, San Diego’s CBS 8, which caught the incident on camera, reported.
When the firefighter refused and continued to treat victims of the accident, the officer placed him in handcuffs and put him into a patrol car.

The station said the firefighter was detained for about 30 minutes and then released.
Representatives from the fire department are set to meet with highway patrol officials Wednesday to discuss the incident.
