According to a report from FOX2, a Detroit (MI) Fire Department (DFD) apparatus was struck by a Lincoln Navigator, knocking it into a gas station at Dequindre and State Fair on Wednesday night, injuring seven people, including three firefighters. All are expected to recover.

The collision between the fire truck and SUV sent the fire truck careening into a Citgo gas station, hitting the pumps and then striking another vehicle before coming to a rest in front of the station store.

The DFD truck was heading to a call on I-75. 

Detroit police say it is unclear who is at fault at this point in the investigation.

Dean Klinger started his career as a firefighter with the city of Sedro-Woolley in November 1980. He rose through the ranks — from volunteer to being named chief in 1992. Now the 58-year-old is set to retire at the end of May after 40 years with the city. “It has been an enjoyable career,” said Klinger, whose father and brother were also firefighters.
