| On March 14, 2007, at 1633 hours, the Huntingtown Volunteers and Medic Unit were alerted to 230 Hope Lane for the child struck by the dirtbike. Units alerted from Huntingtown were: Squad 6 (Lt Thrasher), Engine 62 (Capt Patin), and Ambulance 68 (Hayward). Units arrived to find an unconscious 6 year old child that had been struck by a dirtbike. Crews immediately went to work stabilizing and immobilizing the child. The patient was quickly loaded and transported to Children's Hospital. The Landing Zone was handled by Squad6. Lt Thrasher terminated the command at 1704 hours. Many thanks to Chief 10 and the Criticial Incident Stress Management Team (CISM). Due to the injuries of the child and the effect it had on our providers, the CISM was notified and assisted those. |
