Two people were critically injured when their passenger vehicle collided with a Contra Costa County Fire Protection District fire truck Saturday morning in Walnut Creek.
The incident occurred about 10 a.m. Saturday (April 13) on Interstate 680 southbound near the Olympic Boulevard exit, district spokeswoman Lauren Ono said.
The ladder truck, which has a rear steering position, was blocking a lane of the highway to protect firefighters responding to an earlier vehicle accident, she said.
Four firefighters who were in the truck when it was hit were not injured, Ono said.
Both people in the passenger vehicle were taken to a hospital in critical condition, she said.
