At around 7:09 a.m. on July 24, the BJW Fire Company and Clearfield Fire Department arrived at Lansberry Trucking in response to a reported box truck rollover involving entrapment.
The truck had left the parking lot, gone down a steep incline, and wrecked when Attack 16 arrived. There was one person inside who was said to have been there since the nite before.
To get ready for extrication, firefighters removed the windshield and cleaned tree limbs and other obstructions. Rescue 1 lowered a Stokes basket to the car using a high-angle rope system. Following the occupant's release, the patient was transported to EMS for assessment and transportation using an ATV trail.
