A firefighter was injured Thursday when a 17-year-old driver crashed into a fire truck at Mt. Elliot Street and Gratiot Avenue on Detroit's east side. Firefighters were responding to a fire just around the corner when the teenage driver crashed an Impala into the side of the fire truck. One firefighter was taken to Detroit Receiving Hospital with minor injuries, officials said. The 17-year-old driver said he slammed on his brakes when the fire truck went through the intersection, but he went careening into the side of the fire truck. He was not injured in the crash.
