RESCUE 11 & ENGINE 12 EXTRICATE ONE ON RT. 695 NB

Late this afternoon Solvay Fire was dispatched to 695 NB for reports of a two car MVC with injuries. Rescue 11, Engine 12, and Car 1 (Spaeth) responded and arrived to a vehicle accident with one occupant still in one car. The vehicle was pinned against the guardrail and doors were crushed in on the passenger side, making it difficult for responders to access the occupant. Rescue 11's crew went to work using the hydraulic spreaders and cutters to remove the passenger's side door to gain access to the occupant. Once the door was removed Solvay and Rural/Metro worked together to backboard and K.E.D. the patient who was transported to a local medical facility. Solvay units cleared and returned to service.
