FDMJ Engine-104 (A Shift), under the command of Captain Nick Ford [1101], arrived on the scene a couple moments later. Firefighter Mark Chasteen tended to the victim while Firefighter Mike McCleeary and Captain Ford created a path through the trees with a chainsaw to remove the victim to the Ambulance. Once on scene, Wilson EMA Medic-101 (A Shift), FDMJ, and MJPD Officer Shanna Drake removed the patient from the vehicle and carried him to the ambulance. He was then transported to an area hospital from evaluation and possible treatment.
