ANAHEIM, Calif. — (NBC) - Firefighters in Southern California issued a warning Tuesday for anyone foolish enough to park in front of a fire hydrant.
The firefighters from the Anaheim Fire & Rescue Department arrived at a home with a fire, only to find a car parked in front of the hydrant.
So, they did the only thing they could do. They smashed out the car's windows and ran the hose through the car.
The fire department tweeted pictures to warn the public what can happen, if you park in front of a hydrant.
Certainly the owner of the car learned a lesson.

Ever wonder what happens when a car is parked in front of a fire hydrant and a fire breaks out? Is a closer parking spot worth the broken windows and the citation and towing fees to @AnaheimPD? @City_of_Anaheim residents please do not park in fire lanes pic.twitter.com/Q96E4gfTOR
