Mt. Juliet Fire Department

06/07/2026

Early this morning, Mt. Juliet Fire Department crews responded to a major crash involving a tractor-trailer on Interstate 40 near the county line.

The tractor-trailer struck the center median wall, causing significant damage before catching fire. Due to the extent of the fire, the vehicle sustained heavy damage and portions of it became fused to the roadway, creating a challenging and lengthy cleanup operation.

Firefighters worked quickly to extinguish the blaze, protect the surrounding area, and assist with patient care. Two individuals were transported from the scene.

Incidents like these require a coordinated effort between fire personnel, law enforcement, EMS, TDOT, towing companies, and other partner agencies. We appreciate the professionalism and teamwork displayed by everyone involved as crews continue working to safely clear the scene and repair damaged infrastructure.

One of the best parts of the job isn’t always the emergency calls — sometimes it’s the unexpected moments in between.

While crews were on a call nearby, a group of curious kids (and a few excited parents) in the Jackson Hills neighborhood stopped by to check out one of our fire apparatus. Firefighters were happy to take a few minutes to give everyone a closer look, answer questions, and show off some of the equipment we use every day.

A huge thank you to Texas Roadhouse for their generous contribution to our EMS appreciation luncheons this week. Your support and generosity toward our first responders means more than words can express.

We would also like to recognize Assistant Chief Brent Blamires for spending countless hours smoking brisket and BBQ for each shift. The meals were incredible and truly appreciated by our personnel.
