Driver receives advanced life support after collision

This morning Emer-G-Med’s RV6, M03 and A01 responded to reports of a serious collision on the corner of Standard Drive and 1st Street in Linden.

On arrival, paramedics found that two cars had collided, causing one car to ramp a pavement and it landed up in a parking lot against a shop window.

“The two drivers were injured, with one sustaining serious injuries that required advanced life support care,” said Emer-G-Med spokesperson Max Cohen. The patients were treated on-scene before being transported to a nearby hospital for further care.

Both drivers alleged that the other car came over the line which caused a partial head-on collision. JMPD was on-scene to investigate the events leading up to the collision.
