Investigators want to know footage of a crash involving two St. Louis fire trucks ended up on YouTube.

The accident left eight firefighters with only minor injuries, but the department is conducting a lengthy investigation.

The video came from a red light camera at the intersection, but it's still unknown how the footage ended up on the web site.

Though the Director of Public Safety isn't happy the tape has been released, he says he thinks it will become a valuable training tool for the department.
