A fire truck crashed in the town of Hancock on Tuesday afternoon.
The driver was responding to a wildfire off Oxen Meadow Road in Franklin about 3:26 p.m., according to Christopher Holmes, the chief of the Hancock Volunteer Fire Department and EMS Services.
When the driver turned off Route 1 onto Franklin Road, the Ford L8000 tanker rolled over, Holmes said Tuesday evening.
Holmes said the driver, who was the truck’s only occupant, suffered minor bruises in the crash.
The crash may have been caused by a brake failure, according to Holmes.
The crash remains under investigation.
