By Deputy Fire Chief Robert Greenwood
June 12, 2016

E77 and R34 were dispatched with two 324 medic units for a report of a car crash into a pole with rescue and several victims trapped at 1049 hours in the intersection of W. Main St and Route 113 (Third Ave) in Trappe. 911 received multiple calls.

Chief 77 arrived at 1053 hours and confirmed two persons trapped in the same car with 2 doors to go and established 77 command.

E77 arrived and crews set up stabilization, fire protection/control and went to work with a hydraulic tool to cut open the drivers door. R34 arrived shortly thereafter and went to work on the passenger who was trapped in the front seat.

Fire Police from Stations 77, 34 and 66 were dispatched and controlled traffic and about 5 location due to the entire intersection being blocked.

Once all victims were removed and transported, Fire & Rescue units cleared and fire police opened the roadway after Auto Rescue Towing removed the cars.
The two trapped victims were taken to a local hospital and the other persons involved refused EMS transport.


This was the second call for station 77 on Sunday as they also responded to a mulch fire 0845 hours at the Court at Upper Providence Shopping Center. TAC 77 extinguished 2 small mulch fires and overhauled the area

The third call of the day was another mulch fire at the Trappe Shopping Center that TAC 77 extinguished.
