MVA with entrapment in Buffalo Grove 9-30-24

Posted by Admin in Crash scene photos, crash scene video | No Comments

Buffalo Grove police and fire departments were dispatched for an accident with entrapment Monday morning in the parking lot of the immediate care center at Lake-Cook Road and Weiland Road. The report detailed a vehicle that was upside down and wedged between trees. Arriving units found the vehicle on it’s side in a wooded area along the south edge of the parking lot with the occupant inside.

Firefighters worked to stabilize the vehicle and assess the driver who was conscious. They were able to remove the patient from the car after opening a portion of the roof.
