Woman Killed in accident with Fire dept. Water Tender

Traffic accident: Woman Killed When Water Tender Runs Stop Sign

A female motorist in Arizona was killed when a fire department water tender went through a stop sign and struck her car.

The accident occurred when a loaded water tender was responding with its warning lights and sirens on. As the driver of the tender approached an intersection, he ran a stop sign and the apparatus struck an auto driven by a woman. The woman was extricated and taken to a hospital, but died shortly thereafter of her injuries. The firefighter driving the tender was injured slightly in the accident.

The tender was responding to a car fire.
