BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - There are two new weapons for fighting fires in the City of Buffalo.

The Buffalo Fire Department showed off a new field communication unit and the new Ladder 4 aerial truck. Ladder 4 will be located at Rhode Island and Chenango on the City's west side and replace a much older truck. The new additions are part of a $15 million investment dating back to 2006 to replace the city's entire firefighting fleet.
