2 injured in crash with Pr. Geo.'s fire truck

Two women were injured in a crash with a fire truck in the District Heights area Monday, authorities said.

About 4 p.m., Prince George's firefighters were called to investigate smoke inside a house on Walker Mill Road, authorities said. On the way to the call, the firefighters were involved in a crash with another vehicle at Addison Road South and Ronald Road.

Two women in a vehicle were transported to the hospital for a "check-up of possible injuries," authorities said. The five firefighters on board the truck were not hurt.

Another fire truck handled the original call, which turned out to be a malfunction in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning system of the home, authorities said.
