Last night at 11:07 p.m., South Burlington firefighters responded to a motor vehicle crash at the intersection of Kirby Road and Airport Parkway.

While units were en route, dispatch advised that the operator was unable to get out of the vehicle. Ladder 1 upgraded the response, requesting Engine 2 to assist with the extrication.

Upon arrival, crews quickly stabilized the vehicle and safely extricated the operator in approximately two and a half minutes. The patient was then transferred to Ambulance 1 for evaluation and care.

This incident highlights the value of a fire-based EMS system, where firefighters, AEMTs, and paramedics work seamlessly together. Having suppression and transport resources respond simultaneously allows patients to be accessed, extricated, and receive advanced medical care without delay.
