Two trucks out of action plus there were injuries so even more folks had to be called off fire duty and put on EMT hats to run an ambulance to Billings. Since there were injuries even though it was on a back road, MHP had to be called to "investigate." The nearest one was about two hours away as usual, and by then it was dark and the trooper car hit a racoon about 10 minutes from the scene and took out the oil pan.

That was one tough raccoon.
