Auto Accident

 April 2, 2010

Company 53 was alerted to 79 W King Street for an auto accident, vehicle into a structure.  Due to the complex rescue, the Cumberland County Collapse Team was requested.  After a removal of the roof from the SUV, crews found two class 4 patients.  Several hours were spent stabilizing the building for safe removal of the SUV.  Immediately following the removal of the bodies the historical building was torn down due to safety concerns.  Special thanks to the many departments that participated with the recovery effort.
