Two fire volunteers were injured when their fire truck overturned along Eastbank Road in Barangay Manggahan, Pasig City, on Saturday, May 23, as they rushed to respond to a blaze.

The local government said the volunteers—one of whom was the driver—were on their way to a fire incident in Barangay San Miguel when the accident occurred at around 11:50 a.m.

No other injuries or vehicles were involved in the incident.

However, the crash caused traffic congestion in the area until the truck was completely removed at around 2 p.m.

The injured volunteers were immediately brought to Pasig City General Hospital for treatment. (Richielyn Canlas)
