“Our understanding is that the fire crew that was in the accident immediately transitioned from being participants in the accident to responding to the health needs of the person in the vehicle,” Hagaman said. “And they did so until additional fire and rescue personnel arrived on the scene.”
Township spokeswoman Barb Wilson said the woman’s injuries “would probably be categorized as serious.” The three firefighters were also taken to the hospital as a precaution but have been released according to Hagaman.
The accident is under investigation.
