A 2 vehicle accident just after 1pm this afternoon on West Main street in front of Tim Horton's. Codiac RCMP were on scene blocking 3 of the 4 lanes. Moncton Fire Department responded and Firefighters had to cut the door off of the Toyota, they covered the person inside the vehicle and tried to break the window . A Ambulance arrived to transport the person to Hospital. A man helped the Police directing traffic, while first responders dealt with the injured person. Road conditions were dry. Main street was tied up for almost a hour. 1 tow truck was needed to clear the scene.
Video aired on CTV news with Bruce Frisko & 2Bon'heures with Marie-Emma Parenteau Rogers TV.

  • Newschaser, you will never run out of footage as long as Moncton has drivers.

  • If you look closer you can see a glass protection drape over the patients when the firefighter is using the "Haligan Bar". He was trying not to use excessive force, and todays vehicles have extremely strong glass. Don't talk shit on your brothers to make yourself seem smarter, things in the field are different , you use what you have at hand.

  • Glass punch > Haligan for this situation. Can't believe they didn't have one. Regardless, nice job attempting it with the haligan, not too much force, but those windows are a pain now.

  • Agree with you there StrungOut4. Thats what we use here in New Zealand. Bugger Trying to smash the window with the hooligan tool if people are trapped inside. Also, noticed NO glass protection at all. If the patient was on the other side, nothing wrong with smashing the back window behind the driver, putting in some glass protection then smashing the glass on their window or visa versa for passenger. Poor example of how it's done if you ask me.

  • next time they should try using a window punch, they work a lot easier, and safer. they should have one in a rescue kit.

  • We had a serious accident in Ladysmith yesterday right by my road

  • Great Vid Newschaser + 5
