The incident happened at Farris Truck Stop in Faucett, Missouri. The unnamed truck driver told firefighters that before he went inside the truck stop, he set the emergency brake. According to deputies, the equipment failed, which caused the truck to crash into a fuel pump. The Dearborn fire department stated that around 200 gallons of fuel were spilled as a result.
