Units from Huntingtown that immediately responded included: Chief 6 (Riffe), Chief 6B (Montgomery), Squad 6 (Nasti), Brush 6 (Fitzgerald), Jeep 6 (Hengstenberg), and Ambulance 68 (Morgan). While en route, Communications received additional information that the patient was approximately 2 miles back into the woods. Due to this information, an additional Brush truck (Dunkirk) was added to the call. Helicopters were grounded due to weather. Units from Huntingtown arrived to find an overturned 4-wheeler several hundred yards off the roadway under BG & E powerlines.
