Two firefighters were suspended with pay in Akron, Ohio, after they reportedly filmed a porn video in their fire station.
According to the Akron Beacon Journal, the two firefighters work at different stations in the city and have been romantically involved for some time.
“Someone, Tucker wouldn’t say who, tipped off a firefighter last week about the sexual acts possibly performed on city property. The firefighter reported the issue to his supervisor, who relayed the information to the chief,” the local news outlet reports.

The city’s fire chief, Clarence Tucker, didn’t disclose the exact station where the video was filmed, but the spokesperson for the city announced that the woman in the video was also found in several other pornographic videos working out in a gym.
“These distressing allegations bring unwelcome dishonor and embarrassment to our department and the city of Akron and unfairly discredit the reputation of other Akron firefighters. I know this department, and this is not who we are,” fire chief Tucker told WKYC.
The two suspects potentially face additional discipline, including dismissal, if found to have broken the department's fraternization policy.
