Last night was our 2nd night of Aerial Apparatus training. Special thanks to the Fire Department of the Borough of Mechanicsburg for bringing their truck over for us to check out how their truck sets up and how the controls are to give us, which is a different perspective from how our truck operates.
Last night at 9:47PM, UAFD was called to the intersection of York Road and Siddonsburg Road in Monaghan Township for MVA with entrapment. One patient was extracted from the vehicle on its side and one patient was ejected. No casualties but severe injuries. Upper Allen was assisted by Monaghan Township Fire Company 67 and Northern York County Fire Rescue 15.
Yesterday, Traffic Unit 23 responded with 2 to Harrisburg Pike at the PA Turnpike in Middlesex Township, to relieve Enola’s Traffic 5. Traffic 23 provided traffic control while traffic was rerouted off the Turnpike Exit onto Route 11 North. We were on the scene for approximately 2 hours.
UAFD is all set up at the UAMBA Opening Day for baseball. We are honored they asked us to be part of this special event. The truck and flag is up for the National Anthem to start things off.
