PITTSBURGH (AP) - A suburban Pittsburgh fire truck has crashed into a private vehicle, injuring a woman in the car.
Penn Hills Police Chief Howard Burton tells the Post-Gazette the woman was taken to a hospital with chest pain likely caused by her seat belt.

The fire truck T-boned the woman’s vehicle and struck the passenger side. She was alone in the car.
No firefighters were injured.
