Two firefighters from the Walnuttown Fire Company were killed in a head-on crash with a Toyota Camry while searching for a missing woman in Pennsylvania. Fire Chief Jeff Buck and Assistant Fire Chief Robert Shick, Jr. died after their utility vehicle collided with the sedan on Route 222 near Richmond Township, roughly 45 miles northwest of Philadelphia, at about 6 p.m. Saturday. The Berks County Coroner confirmed the firefighters were traveling north when the Camry, heading south, struck them. NBC Philadelphia reported the UTV was on the road's shoulder when the Camry swerved off the road. Police arrested a male and female who fled the scene. Autopsies for the firefighters, both Fleetwood residents, were scheduled for Monday. The Walnuttown Fire Company expressed condolences in a Facebook post, stating, 'Rest easy chiefs, we got it from here.' No further details about the missing woman or the suspects' arrests were immediately available.
