Guest Photographer - Brent Jones

 

Kernersville Engine 43 was dispatched to a reported 10-50 PI at the intersection of Hopkins Rd and Woodfield Dr.  E43 arrived to find a 2 vehicle head on collision.  There were 3 patients with 1 pinned in each vehicle.  E43 requested Squad 41 and E41 to assist.  E44 was also in the area and responded to assist.  E43’s crew removed the driver’s door of the white car using the Halmatro Combi-Tool.  The red car required the use of the large cutters and large spreaders along with a large ram to do a dash roll to remove that victim.  E43 remained on scene approx 3 hrs while the Kernersville Police reconstructed the accident scene using their new Laser Device that will draw the entire scene in 3-D on computer.
