Tonight’s not the night to sprain your ankle in Fairfax County.

Beginning this evening, the county will cut back its ambulances that respond to non-life-threatening calls between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. Instead of four units, there will be two. The move is a temporary measure to reduce third-quarter expenditures by 1 percent, said Fairfax Fire and Rescue spokesman Dan Schmidt.
