A Macon-Bibb County Firefighter has been terminated and a Captain demoted after a firehouse prank involving an armed gunman was made public. The video of the prank went viral on YouTube and other social-networking websites and the fallout continued this week in the Macon-Bibb County Fire Department.

The firehouse prank video depicted an armed gunman bursting into Station #108's kitchen, making firefighters lie on the floor and firing a shot in an off-room.

Four other firefighters also face discipline and the Fire Chief refused to comment further.
