UPDATE: Part of Broken Arrow Expressway closes after pickup slams into fire truck

The rain is causing quite a few problems on area roads.

Right now, emergency crews are on the scene of an accident involving a fire truck.

It happened on the eastbound lanes of the Broken Arrow Expressway near the Sheridan exit around 11:30 Wednesday morning.

Police tell KRMG the driver of a pickup truck was driving too fast for the conditions, lost control and plowed into the back end of a fire truck while driving about 50 M.P.H.

In a twist of irony, the man had to be rescued by the crew of the fire truck he hit.

The two left lanes are closed.

Drivers can get through in the right lane, but traffic is slow.

Stay tuned to FM 102.3 and AM 740 Newstalk KRMG for any new developments.
