During the afternoon of Thursday December 15th East Brandywine Fire Company volunteers were dispatched to an auto-accident at Route 82 and Route 322.

Chester County Emergency Radio indicated that the accident involved a trash truck and small school bus. Deputy 49 arrived on location and confirmed the report and indicated that one patient was trapped.

Emergency personnel worked collaboratively to extricate the patient from the vehicle, and following excitation they were transported to a local Trauma Center. Our thoughts and prayers are with all 3 patients who were involved in the accident.

Special thanks to the Glen Moore Fire Company for their assistance with extrication. Also thank-you to the Honey Brook Fire Company, Wagontown Fire Company, and West Brandywine Township Police Department for assistance with traffic control.

Thank-you to Irish Eyes Photography for the use of some of the photographs.
