Fireman Impersonator Gets Probation
An Olean man who was impersonating a volunteer firefighter during last spring’s massive fire in Salamanca has been sentenced to three years’ probation.
31-year-old Bradley Thomas was sentenced today in Cattaraugus County Court for pretending to be a firefighter during the May 7 blaze at the former Fancher Furniture Company building that caused more than a million dollars in damage.
Thomas wore a Kill Buck Fire Department helmet and jacket and air pack from the Salamanca Fire Department. He told authorities he was a Machias firefighter.
