At ~10:02 AM, Westmorland 911 dispatched Station 20 (Murrysville VFC), to assist Station 64 (White Valley VFD) for a Two-Vehicle Auto Accident with Entrapment at the intersection of William Penn Highway and Cozy Inn Cuttoff. Station 20 responded with Rescue 20 (5 firefighters including Lieutenant 20), Engine 20 (6 firefighters including Assistant Chief 20), Squad 20 (Captain 20), Chief 20 going directly to the scene, and an additional firefighter manning Station 20. Rescue 20 was the first rescue unit on scene. Rescue 20's crew stabilized the vehicle with the entrapped driver, removed the driver's door of the vehicle with entrapment, assisted Murrysville Medic One in removing the entrapped driver from the vehicle and loading him into the ambulance, cleared debris from the roadway, and assisted the Murrysville Police in regulating traffic at the accident site. Once the patient was loaded in the ambulance, Chief 64 released all Station 20 units for return to station.
