At least three firefighters were taken to the hospital following a fire engine crash near U.S. 290 in northwest Houston this morning.
The wreck occurred about 10:10 a.m. as the Houston Fire Department fire truck was on 610 Loop merging onto westbound 290. The truck plowed through a median and collided with a pillar, police said.
The firefighters were taken to Memorial Hermann Hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries.
