It happened near Clifty Hollow Road on Hanover Hill near Madison, Indiana. ISP says at 8:35 a.m. a firetruck with the Hanover Fire Department had responded to the area in clearing dried mud from the roadway.

They believe the fire truck was traveling east in the westbound lanes of Clifty Hollow Road, when it hit a vehicle head-on.
