Minor Person Injury Accident in South Portage

Shortly after 5:30pm, on Monday April 7th, 2008, the Portage Fire Department was dispatched to a PI (Personal Injury) accident in front of the Speedway gas station on Portage Road (South of Centre Avenue).

A southbound sedan pulled into the path of a northbound truck as the sedan attempted to pull into the Speedway gas station.

The driver of the truck was uninjured. The elderly occupants of the car were both transported to a local hospital with minor injuries.

On scene were Portage Engine 3, Portage Engine 1, Portage Batallion 1, two Portage Police units, and one Pride Care ambulance.

Some extrication was required to pop the passenger door on the sedan (pictured below) to extricate the occupant.
