Georgia State Patrol investigators are looking at two fire apparatus crashes that happened in virtually the same Walton County location around a week apart.
The most recent crash happened Friday along Hawkins Academy Road and involved the Social Circle Fire Department. A firefighter is still in the intensive care unit at Grady Memorial Hospital, and another firefighter is recovering.

Another accident happened a week earlier only 40 feet away with firefighters from the Walton County Fire Department, WAGA-TV reports. Two firefighters were hurt in that crash.
Now the Georgia State Patrol is trying to determine if the wrecks were just a coincidence or if the location is hazardous. A resident who lives near the spot of the crashes told WAGA that about a half dozen accidents have happened there in the past few months.
