Last night Reisterstown was alerted for a car crashed into a pole on Gores Mill Road.  Originally it was a non-emergency call but was then upgraded to a possible auto fire.  E412 arrived to find the driver out of the vehicle.  An ambulance was called to transport the driver due to the impact of the vehicle into the pole.

Last night S414 was alerted for a dwelling fire in Hereford with people trapped. First in companies had a dwelling on fire with potentially two people trapped in the basement. Crew from S414 went to work with fire extinguishment and overhaul.

During the fire E412 and E413 were both staffed for any other calls in Reisterstown and surrounding area.

Once we got back from the 3 hour brush fire off of Gores Mill we cleaned all the hoses and equipment.  Then approximately 20 minutes later we were alerted for another brush fire near Reisterstown Elementary School.  E412 went enroute and found approximately a 100′ section of brush on the hill, by the fields, on fire.  E412 pulled a long hose down the path (one we had just cleaned) and doused the flames.  They requested E413 to be dispatch for more water and so E413 and S414, for man power, arrived on scene to help with the small fire and to roll hose.  We cleared after approximately 30 minutes and went back to station – to clean the hose.

Last night at approximately 6pm a Maryland State Trooper helicopter (Trooper 3) was flying over the Reisterstown area and spotted a 1/2 acre brush fire off of Gores Mill Road.  Station 41 was alerted for an engine response.  The incident quickly escalated due to the size of the brush fire (which was estimated to be 2-3 acres later in the incident).  In the end 11 engines from Baltimore and Carroll counties were dispatched along with numerous brush trucks and Baltimore County rehab units.  Crews were there for just over 3 hours to put the fire out and then cool the hot spots.

S414 was alerted for a motor vehicle collision at the Royal Farms just north of our station.  S414 arrived to find two vehicles and one person trapped inside.  They called for a rescue box and so E412 came too (along with several other apparatus).  S414 cut the door off the vehicle and the crews extricated the patient from the vehicle.  The patient was transported by M56 and the suppression crews cleared the scene after about 30 minutes.

Early this morning Station 41 was alerted for a car into a building.  E413, S414 and IV415 responded and found a car into a tree.  One patient was transported to the hospital.
