Horrific and Shocking Van Crash in Dukes

 A clothing store van driver suddenly found himself dangling 40+ feet above the coast after his van's front wheels went over the edge. A RCMP officer saw the van driving recklessly however when he attempted pull him over the shocking happened.

 Two patrol units, a fire truck, a rescue unit, fire command vehicle, ambulance and a paramedic SUV took part in the rescue operation which lasted a surprisingly short time. Four fire fighters managed to secure the van and extract the driver before it plunged down the cliff face and exploded.

 He was uninjured but his van was left a crumpled, bent and twisted mess.

Major fire at LC Waste Treatment Plant

 Despite near-freezing conditions and heavy snow brave members of the Liberty City Fire-Rescue and Liberty City Ambulance Service responded to reports of a fire at the Liberty City Waste Treatment Center on Charge Island. Units Engine 51, Rescue 71 and Battalion 11 were dispatched to 4798 Industrial Road with a report of a working industrial fire and instructed to use Tact 9. Upon arrival LCAS Medic 41 and a Supervisor were summoned to the scene where a staging post (callsign Charge Island Command) had been set up. The crews of Rescue 71 and Engine 51 split up to search for the fire as no specific location had been given. A tank and several hoses were discovered blazing on the Delta side. Further details came in of a fully engulfed storage tank just off the island. All crews were prepped in Level B (Medium) haz-mat protection. Dispatch came back with details that the container contained standard mixed sewage. While the on scene crews prepared to set up a foam attack dispatch reported that operators had mistakenly mixed fuel with the sewage. Within minutes Tact Team One had a line of Class B foam on the fire and another team were clearing the area of civilian staff.

 Rescue 71 and other LCFR on scene.

 The primary team stumbled across an unconsious male and brought him out along with another (walking wounded) male. Both were moved to the LCAS triage post in a parking lot across the road. The walking wounded was taken away by the LCAS Supervisor.

The fire was eventually safely extinguished. In all 1 engine, 1 rescue, 1 SUV, 1 supervisor, 5 firefighters, 1 ambulance, 1 paramedic SUV and 3 paramedics responded. The wounded victim is expected to make a full recovery.
