Patterson Accident

 

Via Patterson Fire Department

At approximately 4:00 PM on Friday, April 28, 2017, the Patterson Fire Department was dispatched to a head-on collision on Route 311 at Burdick Road.

Our Heavy Rescue apparatus, designated 22-6-1, was first to arrive on scene, with 22-1-3 and the Town of Patterson Ambulance arriving seconds later. Thankfully, neither driver was trapped in the mangled mass of vehicles and they were removed via ambulance to local hospitals.

Route 311 was closed for almost an hour, in both directions, while emergency crews worked on the accident scene, cleaned the roadway of debris and the vehicles removed by tow truck.
