Turnpike Accident

Squad 33, staffed with seven personnel, and Chief 33 assisted Rescue 45 with a vehicle overturned on the Pennsylvania Turnpike eastbound at mile marker 229.6 on Sunday morning. Upon arrival, crews found the occupant had exited the vehicle. Responders remained on scene until a rollback tow truck loaded the vehicle.

Reduced visibility due to weather conditions highlights the importance for all travelers to stay alert for emergency responders. High-speed interstates are hazardous, and poor weather increases the risks. Engine 33 was staged nearby and released from the scene when no longer needed.
