In New York city there is a nortorious beef between fire and police about who
has ultimate authority over the sceen when both arrive and tempers have flared big time. Happens in many other cities too.
For example :
Suspect in a house with a gun sets it on fire and the fire department wants to go into the house to put the fire out but the cops say no because they are going in to shoot it out with the suspect. The fire department says cops
can't go in because the building is on fire and only fire fighters can go in.
