FYI: The city of Benton is no longer running first responders out of the fire department. The city said they couldn't fund this operation becuase it cost them too much money having to pay paramedics, fuel, etc. The news coverage said that the average response time for the fire department to a scene of an accident was 2 minutes. The ambulance's average response time is 6 minutes. 4 minutes is a long time when you are hurt.
Maybe Benton will get things back on track. That is a very nice city.
