LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Five Pleasure Ridge Park firefighters have been fired.

The PRP fire department board decided the five men violated polices including a zero tolerance policy for alcohol consumption.

Last week two other firefighters lost their jobs.

The firings come after the investigations into firefighters' behavior at PRP Station 5 on Manslick Road during Crusade for Children activities in June.

After alcohol was found, the chief suspended eight firefighters and temporarily closed Station 5 last month.
