Just after 2100 hours the Westwood Fire Company for Fire and EMS were dispatched to the 200 block of Mount Carmel Road in East Fallowfield for an auto accident. Reports indicated a vehicle had struck a utility pole and one injured subject on scene.

Deputy Chief Scott arrived and confirmed the report and established Strasburg Road Command, updating the location to Strasburg Road. Fire Police from Westwood shutdown Strasburg Road between Mount Carmel Road and Windy Hill Road.

There was no Entrapment so fire services were required. Rescue 44 proceeded in to provide lighting. Ambulance 44-1 evaluated one patient on scene.
