Major incident El Cajon: 2/19

1 post in this topic

On Friday, 2/19, at 10:28hrs, B3 called priority traffic for a rescue TC.  He then asked for 3 engines, a truck, a rescue rig, and 3-4 medics.  The TC was at West Main St & Marshall Avenue, El Cajon.  It appears a late model Lexus driven by a 50-60'ish female, T-boned a minivan with 4 occupants.  Wits said the Lexus might have been going 80 MPH (zoned for 35 MPH).  Prior to striking the minivan, the Lexus took out a light standard and telephone poll.  News is suggestion the Lexus driver had a possible medical emergency (though an unintended acceleration has crossed my mind).  B3 called at least 2 acute status patients in the minivan, both small children.  My last update was 2-3 of the victims in the minivan were in critical, possibly the infant in very critical, one passenger was moderate, and I believe the Lexus driver is in serious condition.  The resources on-scene were, dispatched in addition to B3, by Heartland Fire & Rescue, were:
