06/08 MVA Rollover - Entrapment

Dispatched to the L.A.H. (Limited Access Highway) for a single vehicle rollover, into the woods, with 2 injuries. Car1 arrived to find a sedan on its side, with hvy damage & 2 PT's (1 PT believed to be ejected & lying along the roadside & a 2nd PT still inside the vehicle, entrapped.) Rescue 1 went work extricating the trapped & injured male, while EMS attended to the already extricated female. The new TNT cutters & spreads made for quick work on the older style sedan. Both PT's were transported ALS to Hartford Hospital with major injuries.

A special thanks to the brothers who stopped and lent a helping hand (2 Yantic FD firefighters & 2 CT Fire Academy instructors).
