A driver for the Negley Fire Department's Rescue Squad has been cited following an accident in Boardman Township.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol cited 23-year-old Cody Banicki of Negley for allegedly driving through a red light at the intersection of Market Street and Western Reserve Road.

Two people on board the ambulance were taken to Mercy Health Boardman after it collided with a car Monday evening.

Troopers say they reviewed surveillance video from a nearby gas station and saw that the car traveling west on Western Reserve Road had a green traffic light when it was struck by the ambulance.

Troopers say that although the ambulance had its sirens and flashing lights on, the driver is responsible for making sure an intersection is clear before driving through it.

The injuries were not serious.
