NEWBURGH, Ind. (WFIE) - Some planned wedding proposals can be a complete disaster, but a disaster is exactly the thing a local woman was expecting just seconds before her boyfriend got down on one knee to propose.
Firefighter Shelby Whitehouse arrived on the scene on what she believed was a fire in Newburgh. Instead, she found her boyfriend, Lt. Zeke Fleming, ready to pop the question.
Whitehouse thought she was assisting on a run that Fleming had responded to earlier, but it wasn’t real.
“I was kind of disappointed there wasn’t a fire,” Whitehouse said. “Don’t get me wrong, I was glad he proposed - I’m so happy, it was just surprising.”
