A Houston firefighter spent his day off Monday fighting a fire with beer. Capt. Craig Moreau was with his wife on a trip back from Austin on Texas 71 when the couple came across an 18-wheeler with smoke pouring from the brakes. "The brakes had caught and the tire was burning," said Moreau, who initially fought the fire with a small extinguisher the driver had on board. "I crawled underneath and thought wed got it out but it flared back up," said Moreau, who was off duty at the time. "So I said to the driver, what have you got in here?"
