The clip posted by WDIV's Nightcam (Tim Pamplin) shows that a Lincoln Navigator doesn't yield to the truck with flashing lights and pulls in front of it at Dequindre and State Fair. The fire rig jumps the curb to a gas station, where it hit another vehicle and pump. The Navigator crashed into a pole.
No major injuries occurred, according to WXYZ, but three firefighters and four others were taken to a hospital. The cause of the crash is under investigation.
Coincidentally, that same Citgo gas station was the scene of a nearly identical crash, also involving a fire truck, in the summer of 2019.
