A fire truck driven by an 18-year-old member of the Oden Ridge (AL) Volunteer Fire Department barrelled into a Morgan County house on Wednesday. According to one report, only a pest control worker was inthe home at the time of the accident, which ended with the apparatus in the house’s living room.

The driver of the apparatus and a 19-year-old passenger suffered injuries and were transported to a local hospital. Both were wearing seat belts.
