The two occupants of the room were unhurt; they were at breakfast, according to Brad Hunt of the Temple Police Department.

The driver could not immediately be freed from the vehicle, and firefighters and police officers were working to remove him.

The driver of the truck was removed at 10 a.m.

The white trailer with blue lettering was about half-way inside the room on the south side of the building.

The entire hotel was evacuated about 9 a.m.

So many fire units were dispatched to the hotel that by 9:45 a.m. firefighters from other area agencies were being asked to cover specific regions of Temple in the case of fire.
