Tractor-trailer hits Mansfield fire truck, flees scene: ‘Significant damage,’ officials say
A Mansfield fire truck “sustained significant damage” after being hit by a tractor-trailer while responding to another crash on I-495 near Norton early Sunday morning, according to officials.
Around 4:30 a.m. on Sunday, officials said, the fire department’s Engine 33 was responding to an accident before Exit 27 southbound on the highway in Norton when a tractor-trailer hit it. The tractor-trailer did not stop after hitting the fire truck.
The fire truck, which was parked sideways on the road to protect the responding officials, suffered substantial damage to the passenger side windshield, door and front. No injuries were reported in the accident, or in the accident firefighters were responding to, officials said.
