7/8/2004

After receiving several inquiries about Toledo Firefighters Local 92 calling for contributions, the union issued a statement yesterday stating it isn't making such solicitations.

The union recently received calls asking whether it was seeking contributions for retired firefighters and making other solicitations. Local 92 is not soliciting such funds.

"We don't want people to be hoodwinked by these groups," said Sue Cervantes, the union's secretary/treasurer.
