Excerpts from shawlocal.com:
A Minooka ambulance driver has been charged with failing to reduce speed to avoid an accident following a crash at Ridge and Wildy roads on May 23.
The Kendall County Sheriff’s Office handled the investigation because the ambulance is a municipal vehicle, and Jacob Truhlar, 19, received a citation.
According to a news release from the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office, the ambulance was traveling east on Wildy Road about 3 p.m. with its emergency lights and siren activated. As it entered the intersection with Ridge Road, it collided with a vehicle traveling north on Ridge Road.
A 51-year-old female patient in the ambulance and the 31-year-old male driver of the other vehicle had serious but non-life-threatening injuries. Three other people in the ambulance – a 52-year-old female, a 30-year-old male. and the ambulance driver – had minor injuries.
Excerpts from abc7chicago.com:
A Minooka ambulance that was transporting a patient rolled over onto its side after a crash Friday afternoon in Kendall County.
The crash happened around 3 p.m. at Ridge Road and Wildy Road.
Five people were taken to hospitals, four from the ambulance and one from another vehicle. Their injuries were not believed to be life-threatening.
