One car MVA in Wheeling, 9-23-16
This is from Larry Shapiro: Wheeling police and fire units were called to 92 George Road just before noon on September 23, 2016, after a one-car accident with a trapped driver. Upon arrival, emergency responders found a small SUV wedged sideways on the support cables of a utility pole in front of a residence. The driver was conscious but unable to exit the vehicle on their own. Firefighters quickly arrived on the scene and stabilized the car to ensure the safety of both the victim and the crew. They then carefully extracted the driver, who was transported to a local hospital for further evaluation and treatment. A ComEd crew was also dispatched to assess the situation. They determined that the utility pole had sustained damage due to the impact. To safely remove the vehicle, the pole was secured using a truck-mounted boom, and the two steel cables were cut, allowing the car to drop safely to the ground for removal. Throughout the operation, rescue teams worked efficiently under challenging conditions. Several specialized tools, including the Rescue 42 Jack Stabilizers, were used to stabilize the vehicle and ensure a safe extraction. Linemen from ComEd also played a crucial role in securing the pole to prevent any additional hazards.
