Two firefighters were hurt Sunday when a Shallowater fire truck crashed responding to a grass fire.
The firefighters were on the way to assist New Deal firefighters with a grass fire on County Road 2300 at about 2:15 p.m. when the accident occurred on Farm to Market Road 1294.
Both firefighters were transported to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, KCBD reports. One firefighter told police a strong gust of wind rocked the apparatus, leading to a turn off the road and an overcorrection.
