COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — A Colorado Springs fire truck slid into a curb and tipped over Saturday morning, but no one was injured, Gazette news partner KKTV reported.
The firefighters were responding to a building fire in a neighborhood off of Southgate Road and Lake Avenue, when it feel over, KKTV said. The truck tipped over around 6 a.m., police said, and officers responded to the scene near Rice Drive and Mt. Werner Circle.
Icy roads caused the truck to slide into the curb, and the accident was the first of its kind for the department in more than a decade, the fire department told KKTV.
A backup crew of firefighters responded to the fire, KKTV reported.
