It happened just after 5 tonight on Route 115 in Blakeslee..
An Albrightsville fire truck was in headed to an auto accident when the driver lost control and the truck flipped onto its side.
All five firefighters on board were taken to the hospital for treatment.
Two of the firemen were trapped inside the vehicle for a time.
They were taken to Lehigh Valley Hospital.
Investigators believe weather was a factor in the crash.
The crash also took out a PPL utility pole bringing down live wires making the situation even more dangerous...
That stretch of 115 was closed for several hours....it has since been re-opened
