PROVIDENCE, R.I. — A Providence rescue vehicle was in need of some rescuing of its own Monday morning.

The truck got into an accident with a Cadillac while on the way to a call around 9:05 a.m. It happened on Broad Street near Oxford Street.

"They were coming through the intersection. From what I gather, they saw the car coming and tried to make avoidance maneuver, but still made contact," said Battalion Chief Alan Horton.

Full story: Two people in the rescue vehicle and one from the Cadillac were taken to the hospital
