On May 10 at 1316 hours (1:16 pm), units from MAVFC were dispatched for a vehicle accident, reported roll over with one trapped, on eastbound I-70 near the 66 mile marker in Frederick County. First arriving units found a single vehicle over the guard rail resting on it's side with one occupant trapped inside. Frederick RE153 began stabilizing the vehicle while the crew from R-1 went to work removing the roof to gain access to the patient. Once extricated from the vehicle, the patient was transferred to the awaiting Medic unit and later transferred to MSP Trooper 1 for transport to a local trauma center. E12 handled the landing zone for Trooper 1 near the scene. Units operated on the scene for approximately an hour.
