LAFD Fire Truck Porn Allegations Probed

Los Angeles - The Los Angeles Fire Department is investigating allegations that fire trucks in Venice Beach and Hollywood were used in porn shoots. Department officials are trying to find out how involved fire personnel were in the shoot.

FOX 11's Ed Laskos has the story in the video report.

Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa says he's concerned about allegations that Los Angeles city firetrucks were used in porn shoots.

"It does cause me concern that a film of that type would be filmed anywhere close to city property," Villaraigosa said, according to the Los Angeles Times. "It's unacceptable."

The mayor also said that if the reports are true, the city workers involved should face discipline.

The story was reported first by KNBC.

In one video, porn actress Charley Chase is seen approaching a parked firetruck from Venice's Station 63 before climbing onto it and exposing herself.

Firefighters helped to set up the shoot and actually appeared in the video, watching the shoot, according to the report.

A second shoot being investigated by the Los Angeles Fire Department apparently used a truck from Hollywood's Station 41.

Charley Chase later posted on her website:

"Check it out! I was involved in a scandle… hummmmm who would have thought! hehe. I just want to say that I am soooo sorry to the fire fighters involved. it was not my intentions for any one to get hurt or fired or whatever. I am not sure why news reporters are resorting to porn to make there stories these days, but shit… it was a fun day! The Fire Fighters watched me stroll the beach from a distance, but were NOT involved in us invading the truck. I love how news people bend and twist the stories they report to better suit there point. As I said before… there was no set up to that day at all and I tried everything I could to let that be know. That was almost three years ago and it is crazy stupid that this is a problem now. I have had Fire Chief's come to my house, reporters contact me, and a strange amount of harassment from them both. There has been all kinds of crazy aftermath from that day and in all actuality it was a brief moment of fun. Video has a way of making time seem longer then it really is and unfortunately, in this case, it is used for the worse. I am excited for it to all blow over… Especially for the fire fighters case. I never got to meet any of those men that day, but I sure do hope they don't hate me or porn for what happen. Again, I am super sorry to all of them involved and I promise to keep the fun we have in the future our dirty little secret."

LAFD spokesman Capt. Jaime Moore said the investigation was being conducted by the LAFD's Professional Standards Division, which is the equivalent of a police department's Internal Affairs Division, Moore said.

He said the investigation was intended to determine to what extent fire personnel had knowledge of the shoot and whether any firefighters participated.
