News is just coming in of a LODD as a result of a fire truck rolling off a roadway while responding to another motor vehicle crash.

The location where this accident has occurred is quite remote on the East Coast of the North Island.

Reports also indicate that at least one other firefighter has sustained life threatening injuries.

Please pray for our fallen comrade, and for the fellow firefighters having to deal with such a scene.
