At 19:10, while members were being briefed on company level training "vehicle fires", Engine 3-9-1, Rescue 3-9, Ambulances 3-7-1, 3-7-2, 3-19-1, Medics 9 & 3 were dispatched to a vehicle accident with three injuries on East Spruce St. Deputy 3-9 arrived on scene and reported one vehicle into a pole with two down on the roadway and one walking around the scene. Engine 391 preformed engine company functions and vehicle stabilization. Rescue 3-9 and Squad 3-9's crews provided patient care and packaging. Units where released by command and returned to the training site.

Training resumed at 20:00. Firefighters where divided up and maned apparatus for each scenario. Crews stretched handlines and forced entry into the trunk and engine compartment of each vehicle for fire suppression. It was a good training session for our firefighters to practice fire attack and pumping apparatus.

Special thanks to New Holland Concrete for use of their facility, New Holland EMS for stand-by and everyone how has donated vehicles to Liberty Fire Company so we can continue to sharpen our skills.
