A car and pickup truck collided in Rolling Meadows during rush hour Wednesday morning, resulting in a punctured gasoline tank that led to a hazardous materials response.
The collision involved a Ford E350 truck and a Chevy Malibu and damaged a utility pole near Algonquin Road and Weber Drive, a Rolling Meadows police department spokesman said.
No one was injured, but the crash punctured the truck's gas tank and the car had heavy front-end damage, according to police.
The fire department hazmat team cleaned up the scene after power to the utility pole was shut off, the spokesman said.
The 7:37 a.m. crash affected traffic in the area.
