Four White River Township Fire Department firefighters were examined at a hospital after a fire truck rolled over.

The accident happened at 2:14 p.m. Saturday on Olive Branch Road, near Eagle Trace Drive, according to an accident report.

Charles C. Linville, 41, Greenwood, the fire truck driver, told police an oncoming vehicle was driving near the center line, and he tried to move over to make room on the road. The fire truck was pulling a boar trailer in preparation for possible flooding, and the wheels went off the road, pulling the rest of the truck over, White River Township Fire Chief Jeremy Pell said.

The fire truck rolled to its side on the side of the road, causing significant damage, Pell said.

They all were treated and released, Pell said.
