10/12/17 - Delhi Twp extrication, 1100 block N. Onondaga Rd

Shortly before 3 PM on Thursday, October 12, 2017, Ingham Central Dispatch received calls from neighbors reporting they heard a crash in the area of Onondaga & Harper and could hear someone yelling for help. A police unit was dispatched to investigate who immediately reported this was a pin in crash on arrival. The Delhi Township Fire Department was then dispatched for rescue & EMS. A single occupant in a full size pick up truck traveling southbound went off the shoulder of the roadway and struck a tree. The patient was conscious and alert, but heavily trapped in the driver's seat. Firefighters stabilized the vehicle then removed the driver's door and the roof. They were preparing for a dash lift when they were able to gain enough room using a come-along to extricate the patient. The victim was secured and transported to a hospital with amazingly non-life threatening injuries.
