Narrative

West Springfield, PA – At approximately 3:30 PM, first responders from the Springfield Volunteer Fire Department, West County Paramedics, and Pennsylvania State Police were dispatched to a reported two-vehicle motor vehicle accident at the intersection of I-90 eastbound and Route 6N southbound. West County 111 quickly responded to the scene, but Medic 211 was the first to arrive, providing an initial size-up of the situation, which involved two vehicles with moderate damage and at least two injuries. West County 111 arrived shortly after to support the ongoing response efforts.

Recognizing the need for additional support, West County 113 was dispatched for a second patient. Moments later, Medic 211 called for a third ambulance, prompting the dispatch of Cranesville Volunteer Fire Department's 607. Engine 643 and Utility 646 arrived shortly after, with personnel assisting EMS on site and managing traffic control. Incident command was established by Chief 640.

Three patients were transported via ambulance to UPMC Hamot. Auto recovery technicians from Eagle Auto were also on scene to remove the disabled vehicles, and crews from Springfield Volunteer Fire Department assisted with debris cleanup.

The Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) was on scene and conducted an investigation into the accident.
