06/24/2009 : EMSRES : Rt 78 West MM 14.6 (Clinton) The squad responded to a dispatch at 11pm on Wednesday, June 24, for a motor vehicle accident on route 78 west bound in the area of mile marker 14.6. Route 78 command reported two vehicles involved, both tractor trailers, two patients (one heavily entrapped), and a tanker involved actively leaking liquid oxygen. Crews arrived on scene and began extrication of one driver, the second driver self extricated and was transported via ground to Hunterdon Medical Center. Extrication took 1 hour and 45 minutes, with the assistance from neighboring agencies. Once the driver was extricated from the second truck, the patient was transported via NorthStar helicopter to Morristown Memorial Hospital. The leaking, potentially explosive tanker, posed a challenge to crews in the area of the scene. As the driver’s were removed from the scene, units operating were issued an evacuation order and police evacuated businesses in the immediate area; the highway was also shutdown until it was deemed safe to return. The tanker was emptied and removed from the scene, the highway fully re-opened at approximately 11:45 Thursday morning.
