At 1818 hours, units from the Bladensburg VFD, Company 9 were dispatched to the reported auto accident at the intersection of Landover Road and 55th Avenue. Units arrived to find a passenger sedan that had collided with a box style truck. The driver of the sedan was trapped and Rescue Squad 33 was special called on the assignment. While Rescue Squad 33 was en-route, volunteers from Company 9 began EMS care, provided lighting and a protection hoseline. Upon the arrival of Rescue Squad 33, the crew began stabilizing the vehicles involved. Once this was completed the extrication process was started. In all the driver side was completely removed as was the roof. Companies worked together to remove victim and place him in the care of EMS providers. The patient was transported to a local trauma center. Rescue Squad 33 returned to service within 35 minutes. Photo courtesy the Bladensburg VFD, Company 9.
