Some Vallejo residents are so fed up with potholes, they are fixing them on their own, despite the city telling them to stop.
Paramedics were racing a 59-year-old man to the hospital when they hit a pothole, shockingly saving the man's life.
But on Monday the City of Vallejo sent out a stop work notice to the vigilantes, saying the work was not permitted. A city official told ABC7 News on the phone that the proper tools and materials are not being used, and they have environmental concerns that some of the asphalt could lift out of the patches and get into storm drains, making the city liable.The citizens group admits the city has been out repairing some potholes, but say it's not enough, so they are ignoring the stop work notice.
They're even going to accelerate the pothole repair Thursday by handing out buckets of asphalt to neighbors to take back to their streets and alleys.
