Iredell County: Motor Vehicle Collision, Serious

Submission Date/Time: 2010-06-02 10:19 PM

Form Name: freeform_form
TIMEFRAME: Delayed + 6 hours
DAY: Saturday
INCIDENT_TIME: 02:00
MINUTES: :00
INCIDENT_TYPE: Motor Vehicle Collision, Serious;
COUNTY: Iredell
FD: Shepherds Fire Department
ADDRESS: 2014 Charlotte Hwy
CITY: Mooresville
DESCRIPTION: The call came in as a car vs. tree with entrapment. The
Mooresville Engine 4 at Shepherds Fire Dept heard the crash and came down
to find the driver was pinned in the vehicle. Units from Mooresville Fire
Dept., Shepherds Fire Dept., Mooresville Rescue Squad, NC SHP, and CMC
Helicopter were dispatched to the scene. The helicopter was nearby after
being cancelled from another call. The patient was severely trapped in the
vehicle and extrication took about 1 1/2 hours to get the person free.
Multiple extrication tools were used from both Mooresville Rescue and
Shepherds Rescue. Due to the confined space, the process was very slow. The
rescue personnel worked extremely hard to get the victim out. A 2nd person
in the vehicle was not pinned in and was transported to the hospital.
