An Innu community in Labrador could lose fire services because local firefighters are tired of being harassed by kids.
The North West River volunteer fire department says its crew is pelted with rocks every time it responds to an incident in Sheshatshiu.
The North West River mayor says firefighters feel threatened by the kids and one quit as a result.
The chief of the Sheshatshiu First Nation plans to meet with the mayor to discuss the issue.
