A fire truck crashed with another car en-route to a call, causing the back cab of the truck to crash into a building. The impact injured a firefighter who was steering the back end of the truck at the time. There were terrifying moments Outside Riggs Real Estate in Stockton early Monday morning. Just after 2 a.m., the fire truck hit a car and the tiller on the truck’s trailer — with the tiller driver inside — crashed into the office. “People came out right away to secure the building,” said Theresa Dread with Riggs Real Estate. Four Stockton firefighters were headed to a call on Solano. The crew was coming from Station 4, less than a two-minute drive from where the crash happened. It’s not clear whether the sirens were on at the time. Dread showed CBS13 the office surveillance footage that captured the moment of impact, just out of view.
