Tulsa Police say a woman crashed her car after hitting a tire which had come off an EMSA ambulance early Tuesday.

Officers said the southbound ambulance lost a pair of rear tires on Highway 75 just north of the Peoria exit and a car driving behind hit one of them. The impact caused the car to cross into the northbound lanes and hit a light pole, police said.

The driver of the ambulance was able to stop the vehicle without hitting anything.  

Neither the driver of the car nor the EMSA paramedics were injured.  Police say the ambulance wasn't transporting a patient at the time of the incident.
