    Four people were hospitalized Wednesday following an accident involving an Atlanta fire truck, a MARTA bus, and an utility pole.

    Police said the driver of the fire truck rear-ended the MARTA bus on Moreland Avenue around 3 p.m. The fire truck, as a result, swerved and struck the power pole.

    Two passengers and two fire-fighters were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital with minor injuries.

    Georgia Power officials said it re-routed 2,000 customers to another power line, while crews worked to repair the pole.
