| On Tuesday evening, March 25th at 20:43, DTVFD units were dispatched to a three-vehicle auto accident with possible entrapment, reported to be one vehicle on top of another. M503 arrived on scene with a Dodge Ram pick-up on top of two other vehicles with a patient trapped underneath the truck. E517 arrived on scene and removed the driver who was still in the Dodge truck. BC507 arrived and assumed Dumfries Rd Command while E503B, T503, E510 and R510 began stabilize the truck in order to extricate the patient trapped. M503 requested a second medic for the driver of the truck, so A510 and M507 treated the driver of the truck while M503 requested a helicopter for the patient that was trapped. Extrication units were able to free the patient from the vehicle in 25 minutes while E512 was dispatched to handle the LZ at the Dumfries Rd Commuter Lot. BC507F, E503B and R510 remained on scene to assist with lighting while a the towing company's heavy wrecker lifted the pick-up off other vehicles. Command was terminated at 21:48. |
