A motor vehicle had collided into a light pole in the Shaw’s Supermarket parking lot. While passing by in the groomer, it was determined that the gentleman was unable to get out of his vehicle due to a medical event. Using the club tree trimmers, the window was breached, access was gained into the vehicle and the vehicle was made safe by placing it in park and shutting off the ignition. Gosselin and Koehler rendered aid until emergency services arrived. We would like to thank Derby Line Fire Department, Derby Line Ambulance, and Vermont State Police for a quick response to the scene to further assist with helping the gentleman.
