Augusta Fire Chief Antonia Burden had to be rescued by his fellow firefighters yesterday afternoon.  He was found dressed for Halloween as ‘Fraidy Cat’.

When questioned on why he was stuck in a tree he replied that he was chased down by the local media who demanded answers to good questions.

“I told them; I can’t have a dialogue with you if you keep asking me good, coherent, relevant questions.” Burden said.

The media didn’t like that response. Apparently, they chased him down the street with more questions which led Burden who was dressed like a cat to climb a tree and hide. He had to be rescued later by his own department.
