At 1105 hours Station 7, Rescue Squad 1, EMS Station 79, EMS Station 19, and St. Mary's ALS were dispatched to Three Notch Road and Jones Wharf Road in Hollywood for a Motor Vehicle Accident with possible one person trapped. Rescue Squad 7, Engine 73, and Chief 7 responded on the incident and arrived within minutes.
Chief 7 was first to arrive finding two vehicles in the intersection with one occupant unconscious and trapped.
