A Winter Haven fire truck was struck by a Mercedes-Benz SUV at the intersection of Overlook Drive and Dundee Road on Saturday night, according to police. The fire truck was turning left from Overlook Drive onto Dundee Road and had a green turn signal when the SUV struck the fire truck.

The three firefighters inside, who were returning to the fire station after a call, jumped into action by removing the driver who was trapped before providing emergency medical care. The victim sustained critical injuries and was airlifted to the hospital. The Polk County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene and says that both high speeds and impairment appear to be a factor in the crash. None of the firefighters were injured. Both the fire truck and the SUV sustained significant damage.
