Squad 91 (Acting Squad 51) responded on dispatch with 6 and arrived at the 5 minute mark. The fire had been knocked by Officers from Franklin Twp and Town of Clinton PD and bystanders however one patient was heavily entrapped in the car.

With the update of an entrapped patient, Clinton First Aid and Rescue Squad and HMC Paramedics were added. Companies from Squad 91, Rescue 91, Heavy Rescue 455 and Engine 45 worked in conjunction to take the roof, door, dash and pedals to access the patient after the car had sheared a pole and hit a tree. NJSP NorthSTAR responded and landed at the South Ridge Church where Tower 45 had secured the landing zone. The flight medics were brought to the scene as companies were still working.

The patient was extracted at approximately 40 minutes from dispatch and transported to the landing zone. Chief 91 had the "Pittstown Road Command". Thanks to Squad 46 for providing a cover at the QFC Station.

From the Police and 911 Center to the Fire and EMS crews, tremedous efforts were undertaken by all to control the fire, provide outstanding patient care while performing a diificult rescue.

A job well done, it is good to see all the responders working a a team. The end results is what counts.

Thanks for your service and dedication to keeping us all safe!

Thank God for the quick action of the tow truck driver that knocked the fire down with an extinguisher before fire and EMS arrived, probably saved that person's life!
