    Crews worked to clean up after a fire truck overturned while responding to a house fire Thursday in North Las Vegas.

    According to the North Las Vegas Police Department, officers responded to East Cheyenne Avenue and Civic Center Drive just before 11:10 a.m. for a single-vehicle rollover crash that involved a fire truck.

    According to police, officers learned that the fire engine was responding to a house fire on the 2400 block of Salt Lake Street.

    Three firefighters suffered minor injuries and were transported to University Medical Center for evaluation, police said.

    Police said a separate engine was then dispatched to the house fire. There were no injuries reported, and the fire remains under investigation, the fire department said.

    No further information was immediately available.
