The Lake County Sheriff's Office says they cited Leadville fireman Daniel Dailey Saturday for obstruction of a governmental operation.

It happened after both agencies arrived to help a domestic violence victim being treated at the sheriff's office.

Investigators say Dailey wasn't needed but insisted on helping. They say he pushed his way into the building. That got him a ticket.

A union president for the fire department says the incident is being investigated.
