At approximately 0740 hours Tuesday 9 May 2023, Rescue Squad 7 was dispatched to the intersection of Point Lookout Road and Moakley Street for a collision with a person trapped. Rescue Squad 7 and Chief 7 (Rogers) responded with 5 Volunteers shortly after dispatch. First arriving units found a three vehicle collision with one person pinned and one trapped. Rescue Squad 7 arrived and went to work with Rescue Squad 1, utilizing the HURST Jaws of Life to remove the doors and roof to access the patient. Once patient access was made, the crews utilized the 40" spreaders to lift the dash to free the driver. All patients were turned over to EMS for transport to the hospital with one going to a Trauma Center. Extrication was completed within 25 minutes and Rescue Squad 7 returned to quarters at 0845. Chief 7 (Rogers) held the Extrication Group Supervisor.
