According to the Julesburg Advocate, the ambulance lost control and rolled 1 1/4 times.

The patient was killed and the EMT in back was seriously injured. The driver was treated in Fort Morgan and released for lesser injuries.

According to the Colorado State Patrol, the ambulance was traveling at least 20 mph under the speed limit and was encountering inclement weather, the Julesburg Advocate reported.

The EMT was last reported in the Northern Colorado Medical Center in serious but stable condition, according to the Julesburg Advocate.

Vaughn recently submitted an emergency application to the Rural Forest Fire Equipment Center in Lebanon, Mo. and was approved for a truck. They will be picking it up today. For the last two years, Hornersville has been using a Kennett Fire Department reserve truck, and according to the Public Safety Director John Mallott, with his assistance they have written and submitted two grants through FEMA in an attempt to acquire the funding that Hornersville needs to purchase a new truck, but so far have been unsuccessful.

Vaughn finally submitted a call in application to the Rural Forest Fire Equipment Center and was approved on an emergency basis. The current Hornersville Fire truck has been down for two years and because it is a 70s model truck, Vaughn said that they could not find parts to fix it.

The official name of the event is a housing ceremony. It has its beginnings in the 19th century and is meant to transfer the old to the new. The wheels are washed by the firemen, as was custom from the old horse-and-buggy days where the wooden spokes of the wheels had to be kept moist after each fire to prevent cracking.

Schmidt joked that in days past, it was easy to find out where a fire in town was. All one had to do was follow the line of broken down fire trucks leading to it. And as they watched the new, $700,000 Engine 33 be custom built over the last several months, he couldn’t help but reminisce about how they had to build a couple of the trucks they are now retiring, without that kind of money.

"This siren, as heavy as it is, slammed back in and put the big dent in," says Green Bay Metro Fire Chief David Litton, showing our cameras the damage to the engine's front bumper.

He estimates Engine 3 will be out of service for several weeks while mechanics repair roughly $7,000 in damage from the crash.

"They were coming southbound on Washington Street, and a lady approached from Walnut, heading west and went through a red light," says Litton.

He says around 10:30 Friday night, firefighters were approaching the Meyer Theater at about 20 miles an hour, with a green light, when the engineer spotted the woman.
