On Thursday, October 16, 2003, while being used as a water shuttle, Engine 113 was run off the road by a pickup truck trailing a dingy. Engine 113 was occupied by driver only as if ran lights and sirens back to the scene with a tank full of water. As the truck rounded a corner at an intersection, it never saw the engine and ran it off the road, the truck having swung too far into the opposing lane. Engine 113 ran off into the ditch on the side of the road causing $50,000+ worth of damage as of February 26, 2004. It is also in the shop, still, as of this date as well. |
