There was a terrible mobile home fire and all the news outlets got the location correct. . .except one: ABC25. You can always count on them to get locations wrong anywhere in the vicinity of the City of Lake Worth and central Palm Beach County generally.
Here is the news from
The Palm Beach Post and a short excerpt:
A firefighter checks on a mobile home gutted by fire before dawn
Wednesday morning at a mobile home park west of Lantana. According to
Palm Beach County Fire Rescue, two people were taken to the hospital.
Captain Albert Borroto says that the call came in at 2:15 a.m. to
reports of a fire inside the Lantana Cascades mobile home park.
Here is
ABC25's false news report:
LAKE WORTH [emphasis added], Fla.—Palm Beach County Fire Rescue pulled two people from a mobile home fire in the Lantana Cascade community Wednesday morning.
According to officials, firefighters were faced with narrow
roads and a lack of fire hydrants within the community when they arrived
on the scene around 2:30 a.m.
It's usually here where there's a short lesson on municipal borders and what is unincorporated Palm Beach County. However, in the case of ABC25, that effort is pointless.
