One emergency leads to another, apparently.
According to a news release, Chattanooga firefighters were dispatched to a wreck with injuries on Highway 153 northbound on the Chickamauga Dam, but there was no wreck.
The man driving the car was having a medical emergency and pulled his vehicle over on the bridge. Firefighters rendered medical aid to the man and helped load him into an ambulance, but that wasn’t the end of the trip for them.
After firefighters closed the ambulance door, an old Ford F-150 pickup truck pulling a trailer loaded with firewood was on fire approaching them.
The driver pulled his flaming truck up next to the ambulance and parked it.
