| On Thursday, July 19th, 2007, at 1623, the Sadsburyville Fire Company, a Rescue from the Parkesburg Fire Company and Pomeroy Fire Company Ambulance were dispatched to the Route 30 Bypass west of Airport Road in the westbound lanes for the reports of a four vehicle collision.
Due to confusion at the time of this call, the Westwood Fire Company was already dispatched as well in their local. Past Chief of the West End Fire Company Randy Scott was in the area and confirmed the accident to be in Sadsbury Township in the area of Old Wilmington Road.
Engine 31-2 responded three minutes after the time of dispatch.
Chief Supplee arrived and established Route 30 Command and advised Westwood Rescue 44 to come into the scene and begin disentangling the vehicle. Parkesburg Rescue 28 was instructed to assist Westwood crews.
Extrication was complete at 1646 hours.
Pomeroy Ambulance 29-1 and Downingtown Medic 46 transported one victim to Brandywine Hospital.
Sadsburyville units remained on scene until the tow truck company arrived.
