What looked like a flash video is FAIL because it's a recording of a radio interview.

Anyone got a student's vid of the event? You know SOMEONE has that video.

I bet they were like, "oh flying hockey puck".

Well, I guess it's a good thing emergency personnel were on the scene.

I had nothing to do with it!

From what we gathered, everyone has been treated and released from the hospital, calling it just bumps and bruises. Tonight at six, hear first hand from students who saw the terrifying accident.

That word, I'm not sure you know what it means.

If the firefighters had been following the protocols of every fire department I know of, they would have put chocks under the wheels anytime the vehicle is parked.

Headline: Mock crash in Detroit Lakes almost turns into real life tragedy

Subhead: Detroit Lakes, Minn. (WDAY TV) - A bizarre incident in Detroit Lakes this morning where a mock crash almost turned into a real life tragedy.

Lede: Detroit Lakes, Minn. (WDAY TV) - A bizarre incident in Detroit Lakes this morning where a mock crash almost turned into a real life tragedy. (That's not even a sentence.)

TFA: An unmanned fire truck that officials believe was in neutral with the park break on began sliding and rolled about 30-feet into the mock scene, sending six people to the hospital.

NO. Brake.

Also, did it slide or did it roll?

1984 my high school put a "drunk driving" car crash as a display on the quad They used a 1970 Duster the same car my friend & I owned. Saturday night between 1am and 3 am we parted that car for ourselves.

/got rid of that car in 92 because of a GF wish I kept it.

C'mon, you got to let me know,
Did it slide or did it roll?

Fire Trucks don't have a park, so... that's probably why they forgot to put it in park.

I run over kids with firetrucks so I'm getting a kick...

/hate these damn drama-rama stunts

"in Neutral with the park break on"

Hopefully Detroit high schoolers have a better command of spelling and syntax than the TV/website journalists.

LordOfThePings		2012-05-05 09:33:53 AM

A complete mock up.

I doubt it, although most know the difference between Detroit and Detroit Lakes, Minn. Atleast the second time someone reads it to them.
