Four Baltimore firefighters have been hurt after their fire truck ran off the road and crashed into a home's back porch.

Fire department spokesman Kevin Cartwright says the fire engine was heading to a reported fire in the 3500 block of Lynchester Road when the accident happened about 3:30 p.m. Thursday. The Engine 46 fire truck drove into the backyard of a home in the 4000 block of Bereva Road and hit a back porch.

The officer on the fire truck suffered head injuries and the other three also had non-life-threatening injuries. They were all taken to Shock Trauma.

The accident's cause is under investigation.
