A firefighter was seriously injured when his fire apparatus rolled over in Lancaster, Ontario Saturday.
The South Glengarry firefighter was responding to an accident on Highway 401.
“The road conditions were very slippery this morning, causing the fire truck tanker from Station 4 in Lancaster to roll over while responding to an accident along Highway 401,” Fire Chief Vic Leroux told the Seaway News. “The firefighter involved in the accident was operating the tanker and was the only occupant of the vehicle."
He transported to a hospital in Ottowa and is listed in stable condition.
“We are wishing him a full and quick recovery and thank all of our Fire Department for their dedication to keeping our residents and community safe," Mayor Ian McLeod said.
