THE WARWICK TOWNSHIP FIRE CO. IN BUCKS COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, has its tower truck trapped inside the firehouse this morning.  About 8:10 pm on Saturday a pickup truck came careening into the front of the station, destroying the tower’s bay door and knocking down several chunks of the building’s facade.

The tower suffered some body damage, but does not appear at first to be mechanically impacted.  There was also some plumbing and electrical damage in the station.

Police are attempting to figure out why the driver, who was alone in the pickup, drove into the building even though it is set back some distance from the roadway.  He was the only person hurt in the crash and was taken to a hospital for undisclosed injuries.
