Around 7 a.m., LCFC Volunteers and Uwchlan Ambulance were dispatched to Route 401 and Moores Road for an accident with entrapment. Chief 73 responded and was advised of a head-on accident with 2 patients, with 1 patient trapped in the silver SUV.
Chief 73 arrived minutes later, confirmed the report of entrapment, and requested fire police from Station 69 and 73 to close 401 at Templin Road and Nantmeal Road. Upon arrival, the crew from the Rescue 73 worked to stabilize the SUV, removed the driver’s door and assisted in patient removal. The crew from Engine 73-1 worked on controlling the leaking fluids from the vehicle. 73-54 handled patient care until Uwchlan Ambulance arrived.
Crews operated for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes before clearing.
