Folks in Mineral Point are “Filling The Boot” in support of the families of two firefighters lost in the line of duty earlier this week.
Captain Brian Busch and James Ludlum were killed Thursday morning when a semi truck hit their fire truck on U.S. Highway 151. In response, the Hall of fame inductees hosted a “Fill The Boot” fundraiser at the Mineral Point High School. Folks coming out were able fill two firefighter boots with donations to support costs for the two men’s funerals and their families.
