Two Milwaukee firefighters petition to get jobs back

MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- Two Milwaukee firefighters have started a petition to get their jobs back.

Nathan Fager and Joey Siegert are looking to get at least one thousand signatures. If they get them, they'll take them to the Fire and Police Commission.

Fager and Siegert were both probationary firefighters who were terminated in early October. They say they were not given an explanation as to why -- or given the opportunity to defend themselves.

Fager and Siegert were two of nine firefighters who were suspended for allegedly vandalizing the fire station of Engine 32.
