Just after 12:00 PM Thursday afternoon Special Hazards 900 was requested to RT 138 at the Richmond/South Kingstown town line for a multi car MVA with rollover and entrapment. Richmond Police were first to arrive on scene and reported they had two subjects entrapped in a rolled over jeep. Special Hazards 600 arrived on scene and quickly put their cutter to work freeing the female passenger. Hope Valley's Special Hazards 900 arrived soon after and put 1 set of cutters and spreaders to work. A Life Star helicopter was requested and the West Kingston Fire Department was dispatched to a nearby field to establish a landing zone. Both patients were freed from the vehicle in less than 20 minutes. for more information follow the links below.
