On Thursday, April 18, the Livingston Fire Department responded to a two-car accident in front of 127 South Livingston Avenue. The wreck occurred between West Cedar Street and Wilson Terrace, less than a block from the Fire Department’s headquarters building.
One of the vehicle’s occupants reported being stuck within the car, prompting the dispatch of the Fire Department’s rescue truck for victim extrication. However, the occupant was able to climb out of her car’s passenger window without injury. Once safely out of her vehicle, the driver was checked by emergency medical services personnel.
As this occurred, officers from the Livingston Police Department were on the scene, directing traffic as the vehicles were towed. The second fire engine was cancelled prior to its arrival on the scene.
