By Chief Officer Brendan Beaton
August 9, 2008

At approximately 8:15am units from United Fire Company were alerted for a vehicle collision at the intersection of West Patrick Street and Norva Avenue. Emergency Communications Center indicated the possibility of entrapment. Rescue Squad 3 was the first unit to arrive and determined it to be a two vehicle collision, confirming entrapment of one subject. Ambulance 38 and Engine 31 also arrived on the scene. Lieutenant Shippey established command, requested two additional transport units and began stabilizing the vehicle with entrapment. Chief 3-1 arrived on the scene and assumed command allowing Lieutenant Shippey to perform the extrication. Crews utilized the hydraulic cutters and spreaders to remove the driver's side door allowing the patient to be removed. Frederick County's Advanced Life Support along with Ambulance 18 were able to evaluate the patient more thoroughly. After all patients were assessed and transports determined, command was terminated and units began going in service as ready. The scene was released to the Frederick City Police Department.
