Rescue Squad 7 (7), Engine 73 (4), and Chief 7 responded with a total of 12 volunteers shortly after dispatch. EMS units from Station 79 arrived on the scene first advising there was one patient trapped in the vehicle. The units from Station 7 arrived on the scene and went to work stabilizing the vehicle and preparing for extrication.
