WASHINGTON 鈥� A D.C. firefighter and police officer have been taken to the hospital after a head-on crash in D.C. Monday afternoon.
Police say a fire truck had its lights on and was headed to a call when it was involved in a crash on Porter Street in Northwest D.C. at about 3 p.m. A Metropolitan Police Department spokesperson says a car drove in front of the fire truck, causing the fire truck to swerve and strike a police car parked alongside the road.
A police officer who was in the police car was transported to an area hospital as was a firefighter. The police officer had neck and back pain and the firefighter’s injuries are not known at this time. Both are expected to be OK, according to police.
