Texas Wreck Damages Firer Truck

One of Plainview’s fire engines is now out of service after being damaged in a weather-related traffic mishap on Friday. According to Fire Chief Rusty Powers, Engine 3 was providing backup to an EMS unit at the scene of a one-vehicle rollover on Interstate 27 about 7 p.m. Friday when it was struck by another vehicle after that driver lost control on the ice-covered roadway. “It’s fortunate that Engine 3 was there blocking the scene, or we possibly could have had members of our EMS crew seriously injured or even killed,” Powers said.
