On the night of July 10, 2007,
the Doylestown Fire Company was dispatched to 1776
Easton Road in front of 711 and Doylestown Pizza for
a motor vehicle accident with entrapment. On
arrival, EMS was already treating the people
involved and decided not to remove the driver's door
of the car because they could remove the patient.
Engine 79 and Rescue 19 assisted EMS and controlled
the hazards on both vehicles. Engine 19-1 and Ladder
79 also on scene for additional manpower. Photos by
