On Saturday a Chevrolet 3500 pickup truck printed with the sign of a Baytown, TX company collided at high speed with a Channelview Volunteer Fire Department truck that was responding to a call on a house fire. The Chevy 3500 pickup truck was westbound on the I-10 feeder road at Thompson. The Channelview fire truck was northbound on Thompson.

A witness was stopped at a nearby red light when the pickup truck – fire truck collision occurred. He said that the Chevy 3500 pickup truck struck the Channelview fire truck with great force. He said that the pickup truck’s impact managed to knock the heavy fire truck across the median. The witness stated that the force of the truck collision almost knocked the Channelview fire truck over. Hoses and other equipment spilled from the truck due to the collision.

The Chevy 3500 pickup truck driver and two passengers were hospitalized from their accident injuriesin stable condition. The Channelview volunteer firefighters were fortunately uninjured. An investigator with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office stated that the accident was under investigation.

The truck accident attorneys at Denena & Points were relieved to hear that the Channelview firefighters escaped injury in the major impact. We send best wishes to the Chevy 3500 pickup truck occupants for a safe recovery from their injuries. We hope that the residents of the house to which the firefighters were responding did not suffer additional damage from delays caused by the unfortunate pickup truck wreck.
