Collision on 8th Street ends in rollover
Just before Five O'clock this afternoon, Saskatoon Fire Department responded to a two vehicle MVC on 8th Street at Circle Drive. Two Engines, one Rescue Unit, and one Battalion Chief were dispatched.
On arrival, crews found two passenger vehicles had collided at the intersection, causing one of them to rollover onto its roof. Fire paramedics quickly determined there was only one patient remaining in the rolled vehicle, unable to self extricate. The other occupant and the driver of the second vehicle were accounted for and uninjured.
Fire fighters stabilized and de-energized the rolled van then used hydraulic tools to access and extricate the occupant. The process was completed in a matter of minutes.
One person was being transported to hospital with minor injuries. The two other persons involved were uninjured.
Fire crews cleaned up debris and any leaking fluids.
The intersection is temporarily partially obstructing traffic flow.
