In GTA IV, the [[MTL]] "V 24 Supercharged" Pumper serves as the [[Liberty City Fire Department|FDLC's]] standard firefighting apparatus, equipped with a high powered deck-mounted water cannon. Every fire truck is numbered [[69]], unlike in previous games where they were pseudo-individually numbered.

The Fire Truck can be found at fire stations, but is rarely seen driving around, even with a fire in the vicinity; they can, however, be summoned by dialling 911 and requesting the fire emergency service. Firemen are apparently not coded to put out fires at all, even when called to existing fires — the fireman complain about "another prank call", as they usually do upon being summoned, and depart.

If the player fires the Fire Truck's water cannon at any vehicle (excluding police), the driver will brake, and then either ram the truck, or get out and attempt to pull the player out of the truck. If the [[police]] see the player "attacking" cars or people with the water cannon, a one-star wanted level is given, and if the player hits the police cars with the hose, two wanted stars are given. The water cannon is apparently seen as a deadly weapon by the LCPD; using it against police and civilians is one of the fastest ways to gain a six-star wanted level.

It is possible that you can kill a pedestrian using the hose, but this will take a very long time.
