Four people are in the hospital following a traffic crash involving a Miami-Dade Fire Rescue vehicle in North Miami.
According to officials, North Miami Police and MDFR responded to the scene of a crash involving a rescue truck along Northwest 135th Street, just west of Interstate 95 around 4:20 p.m., Friday.
