Two firetrucks collided while heading to a house fire in northeastern Pennsylvania, resulting in six firefighters being injured.

Two firetrucks collided at an intersection in northeastern Pennsylvania while responding to a house fire, injuring six firefighters.
The collision occurred when a rescue truck entered the intersection on a red light and collided with a ladder truck that had a green light activated by a traffic light pre-emption system.
Two firefighters sustained moderate injuries, while four others were slightly injured and received medical treatment at local hospitals.
The incident caused a portion of Hunter Highway to be shut down for about four hours as police investigated the crash.
The house fire both vehicles were responding to was ultimately destroyed, but no injuries were reported among the residents.
