On Friday July 6, 2007 at 2351 hours, Company 6 (Huntingtown) and the Medic Unit were alerted to 3215 Bayside Road for the auto accident. Chief 6B (Montgomery), Chief 6C (Hayes), Lieutenant 6 (Thrasher), Squad 6 (Nasti), Engine 62 (Cox, C), Ambulance 68 (Hayward), and Ambulance 69 (Stewart) responded with 18 Volunteers. Huntingtown units arrived to find a single-vehicle that had rolled several times into a corn field. The driver refused treatment, however, the passenger was packaged and flown due to an altered mental status and mechanism of injury. Engine 62 handled the Landing Zone. Huntingtown units remained on the scene until 0030 hours. Chief 6C handled the Command.
