Just after 8 in the morning, units from 12 and 1 were alerted for the vehicle accident with entrapment on Mt. Phillip Rd at Teal lane. Chief 1-1 (Ausherman) arrived to find 2 SUV's head on with one trapped in the vehicle. Engine 12 was added to the call to make staffing for Engine 122 who was driver only. The Rescue Engine arrived to stabilize the vehicle and removed the drivers door to gain access to the patient. The extrication was completed in less then 8 minutes, great job to the crews. All patients were transported to local hospitals with none life threatening injuries.
