2-CAR TRAFFIC ACCIDENT

Battalion 14 companies recently responded on a 2-car traffic accident at Cahuenga Blvd. and Whitnall Hwy.

Firefighters were confronted with a car wrapped around a power pole.

Task Force 60 asked for a physical rescue assignment, but was able to extricate the driver in less than 10 minutes.

E86 and RA60, responsible for patient care, rapidly transported the 30-year-old male in critical condition to the nearest trauma center.
