| On Friday January 25th, 2013 at 1003 hours the West, Gap Fire Company Rescue 42 and Medic 93 were dispatched to Routes 10 and 30 in West Sadsbury Township for an auto accident with reported entrapment. Additional reports came in to 911 and the Sadsburyville Fire Company was dispatched, as the accident was believed to be in Sadsbury Township.
EMS Lieutenant Kreger from Pomeroy arrived and hailed to the county that there were limited injuries and no entrapment. The incident began to get scaled back as units were failing and not being made up.
Engine 31-1 arrived on location at 1018 hours and Lieutenant Pearce established Route 10 Command. It was determined limited services were needed and the West returned to quarters. Fire Police were dispatched from the Parkesburg Fire Company to shut down Route 10 at Octorara Road. In addition, Martins Corner Fire Police Captain Cunningham added himself to the call and assisted with traffic control at the scene.
Sadsburyville units stood by as bulldozers and dump trucks were brought into the scene to remove the grain from the roadway.
Command was terminated and Engine 31-1 went available at 1137 hours. |
