Just after 7 a.m. Kuhl Hose and
Emergycare units were dispatched to the 9400 block of
Wattsburg Rd, just south of Kuhl Rd. Chief 690 reported
a 5 vehicle accident on arrival. A secondary size up
reported a 6th vehicle involved. There were two
separate three vehicle accidents. The early morning sun
caused visibility to be impaired and may have
contributed to the early morning pile up. Two patients
were transported to area hospitals, one to ST. Vincent,
and one to Hamot Shock Trauma. Crews were on scene for
just under an hour securing vehicles and assisting the
State Police. The accident is under investigation by
the State Police.
