“It could have been a lot worse,” Village of Tivoli Mayor Joel Griffith said just after midnight Saturday morning. The fire prompted response from multiple agencies. “It’s startling. It’s disturbing. But, nobody got hurt. The response from our fire company, the county and all the adjacent fire companies, it’s humbling and tremendous.”  

One day after a fire decimated the village's firehouse, department representatives were optimistic. And, Fire Chief Marc Hildenbrand said, "we will continue coverage for citizens in the village (of Tivoli)."

The firetruck then struck the F-250, GSP said, sending it a short distance and causing it to overturn. The wreck led to three injuries, with two passengers in the pickup truck being taken to an Atlanta area hospital for treatment. Their conditions weren't released; though, the Walton County Sheriff's Office referred to the crash as serious in a Friday afternoon Facebook post.  

According to the early investigation, the firetruck driver, who had a red light at the intersection, "failed to use proper due regard" while entering the intersection.

Officials said the fire engine collided with another vehicle at Southwest 59th Street and South Western Avenue. 

No firefighters were injured in the accident. A woman in the second vehicle was taken to the hospital with minor injuries. 

A neighbor living near Fire Station 23 at 7100 Foothill Boulevard spotted a suspicious person and alerted police about 10:45 a.m., officials said. 

After the truck left the station, Oakland police and the California Highway Patrol followed it on freeways through three counties, including Interstate 80 and I-680.
