Video shows hit-and-run crash that sent fuel truck into Texas television studio
On Friday, a fuel truck crashed into the ABC7 studio in Amarillo after a Dodge Ram ran a red light at Southeast 11th Avenue and Pierce Street in a hit-and-run collision.
Surveillance video shows the pickup running a red light in the early morning at 12:30 a.m., causing the fuel truck to strike the vehicle and push it through the station's security fence.
Part of the security fence shattered a studio window after the fuel truck hit a steel support beam at the northwest corner of the ABC7 building.
The driver of the Dodge Ram and two passengers fled on foot after the crash; Police later identified the driver after he contacted his parents at the scene.
Captured on video, the hit-and-run occurred in Texas with the fuel truck driver uninjured, as authorities continue investigating the incident.
