Friday night @ 2155 Companies 2 & 5 were alerted to a MVA on Route 32 at the intersection of Richards Grove Rd. While the call was being dispatched units were updated to the possibilities of serious injuries and entrapment with possibly a motorcycle involved, this precipitated Company 1 being added to the call for manpower.
E21 arrived on scene first to find 2 vehicles that were involved and they were approx 350ft apart on opposite sides of the divided roadway. No motorcycle was found to be involved. Units had 1 patient who was still in a vehicle and was not entrapt and 1 patient who had self extracted from the other vehicle. Both patients were transported to L&M Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries by Waterford Ambulance Service and Lawrence & Memorial Hospital Paramedics.
