Two Hunt County firefighters -- a wife and husband -- were injured when their fire truck rolled over while responding to a call.
The driver was flown to a trauma center in Plano while the male passenger was taken to a hospital by ambulance. Both Quinlan firefighters suffered non-life-threatening injuries, KDFW reported.
Skid marks were visible in the bend in the road where the truck veered out of control, before careening off the left side of the road and smashing into a tree.
"So, like I said before, the truck is replaceable. We'll deal with that, but my firefighters are not. So that is my primary concern," Fire Chief Brian Collinsworth told a reporter.
Collinsworth says the department is as tight-knit as can be.
"We’re all praying for them, and hopefully it’ll be a speedy recovery," Deputy Chief David Smith said.
