Black Horse Pike @ MayFair hotel
Vehicle vrs building
Engine 10-2 and Rescue 10-3 were dispatched at 19:27 hours for a car into the Mayfair Motel on the Blackhorse Pike with multiple injuries. A mini van had completely breached through the front wall of the motel and into a room occupied by an elderly handicapped women. Company Fire Chief John Comstock was first to arrive from the fire department and assessed the situation. Manpower was needed to safely remove the elderly handicapped woman from the room. Firefighters took additional measures to temporarily place columns back that had been knocked out by the van. The township construction official was notified and fire fighters assisted EMS with patient care. Engine 1022, Utility 1027, and Rescue 1038 were in service for about an hour.
