Being that E2 and M1 were clearing from another multi car MVA near the Ridgefield Ice Cream Shop dispatch asked if E2 was free and to start heading in that direction and M2 was added to this assignment since M1 was transporting from the initial MVA.fontpp classMsoNormal stylemargin 0in 0in 10pt text-align justifyfont size3font faceCalibriWith the RPD confirming a roll-over R7 was dispatched also and now itrsquos time to roll. Reaching RT 7 and finding only moderate back up I managed to reach Simpaug Turnpike and park in the turnout. Glancing north I see a Honda Odyssey minivan with moderate to heavy damage not knowing there are 3 passengers in it who would later be collared and boarded for transport in it. The major concern was that a full sized 4 x 4 pickup was on its side with a Toyota Prius wedged between the front of the pickup and the guard rail with a civilian lying on the ground covered and carefully being watched over by members of the RFD. span stylemso-spacerun yesnbspspanspan stylemso-spacerun yesnbspspanspan stylemso-spacerun yesnbspspanfontfontpp classMsoNormal stylemargin 0in 0in 10pt text-align justifyfont faceCalibri size3With the situation civilian wise seeming under control and no major fluid spills speedy dry was applied to what was leaked and members starting sweeping debris from the center of the roadway. Now was the time of transporting all the injured. Along with the RFD and E2 M1 M2 amp R7 mutual aid was provided by Georgetown ambulance and the WRFD which sent along Rescue 5 and E1 amp 3.fontpp classMsoNormal stylemargin 0in 0in 10pt text-align justifyfont faceCalibri size3A fourth vehicle was involved but I have no information but it was reported 4 tow trucks were needed to clear the damaged vehicles and E2 amp R7 stayed on scene in the event while clean up was performed their services were required.fontpp classMsoNormal stylemargin 0in 0in 10pt text-align justifyopfont faceCalibri size3nbspfontoppp classMsoNormal stylemargin 0in 0in 10pt text-align justifyfont faceCalibri size3ALL PHOTOS TAKEN by KEVIN M DOYLEfontppnbspp
