Just before Junior Firefighter training was set to begin at 6:30, FF Craley was listening to the scanner in the station and heard a accident overturned on Rt. 30 given to police officer 26-2. Crews made their way to the gear as the tones dropped and the pagers sounded. The initial dispatch was a vehicle accident overturned with injuries class 1 in the median on Rt. 30, west of the Hallam exit. Engine and Tanker 21 were responding shortly with a total crew of 7. Chief 21-1 arriving just behind the Engine with one vehicle towing a camper overturned with the patients on the other side of the road. Engine and Tanker crews arriving providing patient care and also pulling a hoseline for safety of all involved. Additional crews and crews from Wrightsville helped to depower the vehicle and also removed two propane tanks from the trailer. After the patients were in the care of EMS crews, crews stood by on scene for the arrival of towing services. Crews helped separate the vehicle from the camper and then helped with debris removal and recovery of personal effects. Box available.
