Rescue Company Extricates One
 
By Falmouth Volunteers
February 16, 2010
 
Shortly after units were clearing from an alarm bell sounding Stafford E.C.C dispatched an auto accident in the area of 289 Warrenton Road. The assignment was quickly upgraded to a auto accident with one trapped. While the units were responding a Stafford Sheriff's deputy advised that there was confirmed entrapment. Engine 12 arrived to find two vehicles in the roadway and BC-1 established the "Warrenton Road Command". Rescue 1 took position and quickly stabilized the vehicle. The crew then began removing the doors and the roof with the AMKUS Rescue Tools. After the cuts were made the subject was still pinned by the dash. Rescue 1's crew made a relief cut under the dash and then performed a "high dash lift" to remove the subject. The subject was extricated in approximately 12 minutes. The # 1 Rescue cleared the scene in approximately 1 hour.

Units: E12, R-1, M-11, M-6, BC-1
