PRESS RELEASE

Scary morning for the Flint Township Fire Department family, the department posted on its Facebook page Saturday. While blocking westbound I-69 for an accident scene, our apparatus was struck by a motorist. There were two of our firefighters sitting in the cab when it was struck. Thankfully both are doing ok!

Reminder to PLEASE use caution while slowing down and yielding to ALL emergency vehicles working a scene on any roadway! There are husbands, wives, mothers and fathers working these scenes for their communities that all want to get home safely to their families! We are very thankful our two guys are home tonight with their family.

A special thank you to Flint Township trustee Tom Klee for coming to the station this morning and assisting with anything we needed to help us through this scary time!
