Police and ambulance personnel arrived on scene first, confirming one person was still in the pickup truck. As fire was arriving on scene, the patient self extricated and was immediately packaged for removal and transport. Firefighters remained on scene to secure hazards, search the vehicle and the surrounding wooded area for additional victims, and start clearing an area for the vehicle to be removed. Once the vehicle was returned to the roadway, fire personnel were able to clear the scene.
