Fire Commissioner: We don't do enough to inspect trucks

The Globe reports on what has now become obvious after three incidents - one fatal - over the past few days. Keep reading the story to see how maintenance is, naturally, a football between the city and the firefighters union, with each blaming the other for the problem.

The Herald, meanwhile, talks to a friend of Lt. Kelley's widow, who thinks the accident was preventable and interviews a mechanic who helped inspect Ladder 26 last year about the potential for "icing" problems in the brake lines.
