At 0911 hours Company 7, Squad 7, EMS Station 79, 29, and Medic 3 were alerted in front of Oakville Elementary School for the Motor Vehicle Accident. Squad 7 responded soon after and arrived on the scene at 0920 hours along with the Fire Chief (Albert) who assumed the Oakville Command. Command advised two vehicles t-bone style collision, extrication needed. The crew from Squad 7, and Engine 72 who arrived moments behind the Squad began extricating the priority patient from the vehicle. Within ten minutes extrication was complete and the patient was being removed from the vehicle with a Helo waiting as the patient's priority was a 1 with life threatening injuries. Engine 23 assisted Hollywood Volunteers in handling the Landing Zone for Trooper 7, which at 1007 hours was en route to Prince George's Trauma Center Priority One. Minutes later Command was terminated and units began to return to service. Unfortunately the driver of the vehicle which was T-Boned succumbed to her injuries later in the day. The Hollywood Volunteers would like to extend our condolences and our prayers to all of the family and friends that were affected in this tragic event.
