This person used a hose to put out their neighbor’s campfire.
On June 7, 2023, a man took to the popular subreddit AITA to share a recent conversation he had with his neighbor. The original poster, who goes by the handle u/electrical_summer492, said he used a hose to put out his neighbor’s fire.
“AITA for putting out my neighbours fire with my garden hose while we’re on a fire ban?” He makes this title to explain his topic. He continued, “Update: just for context our sky is literally orange and filled with smoke already. There are weather alerts for smoke pollution, etc.”
“Our entire area is on an extremely strict fire ban. I was out watering my garden once the sun went down, and my neighbour was out lighting up a campfire. I yelled over and told him we’re on a fire ban (as if he didn’t know, our entire area is covered in smoke from the fires) and he yells back that it’s contained and we’re “not in a forest so who cares” so I took my hose and I soaked his entire fire pit and all of the wood I could see. He started screaming profanities at me and tells me he’s going to call the cops. I told him to call, as they will tell him that he was in the wrong as we’re on a fire ban.”
“There have been many homes destroyed, animals who have lost their lives, and firefighters out there who are trying their best to contain it. Why have an open fire when it is not necessary?”
