United States (Kentucky) - An Alvaton volunteer firefighter was injured and a fire truck destroyed after the truck rolled over Monday on Boyce-Fairview Road. While responding to a report of an outbuilding fire at 1166 Greenbrier Road shortly after 3 p.m., firefighter William Tabor, 26, of Bowling Green said he veered from the road to avoid a collision with a white Impala that was driving on the wrong side of the road, according to a Warren County Sheriff's Office release. The truck rolled over and came to rest on its wheels. Tabor was taken to The Medical Center, where he was treated and released Monday for injuries which included a fractured eye socket and jaw bone. Engine 28 was virtually destroyed and the driver of the Impala did not stop, according to the report. Woodburn Volunteer Fire Department Engine 56 detoured to the accident scene, as did members of the Gott Volunteer Fire Department, according to an Alvaton Fire Department news release. Alvaton fire officials could not be reached for comment this morning.
