Red Oak Police say no injuries were reported when a Red Oak Fire Department truck transporting a person to the Montgomery County Memorial Hospital, struck a cement pillar near the hospital garage. Officials say 60-year old Terrence Berigan, of Elliott, was driving the 2016 Ford F-550 owned by the City of Red Oak, when he took a turn too sharp on the entrance drive, and struck the cement post that was in-place to protect the hospital garage from getting hit. The accident happened at around 2-p.m., Tuesday. Damage to the pillar was estimated at $50. The truck sustained about $5,000 damage. No citations were issued.
