A Chula Vista firefighter responding to a rollover accident on I-805 ended up in handcuffs Tuesday night after a dispute with a CHP officer.

CBS News 8 cameras were rolling around 9:00 p.m. when the firefighter and CHP officer got in a dispute over where the fire engine should park, while firefighters were responding to the crash that happened north on I-805 between Telegraph Canyon Road and East Orange Avenue.

Neither agency would make an official statement on camera.

CBS News 8 video shows the CHP officer cuffing the firefighter, who was still in his uniform, at the scene of the accident.

The police officer should have been arrested for endangering lives.
