CLEVELAND — A Cleveland fire station was forced to shut down after firefighters complained about water leaks, mold and a bad smell.
News 5 Investigators found the station's problems aren't unusual — in fact, they're closer to the norm across the Cleveland Division of Fire's buildings.
The closure of Station 30 led News 5 Investigators to ask about conditions at all 27 of the department's buildings. An internal report obtained by News 5 revealed that none of the buildings are in good condition, with issues ranging from leaking urinals and mold to broken HVAC systems and plumbing problems.
