Similar deal around here Years ago.......Vol. fireman was dragging a 7620 phase out of the road where a car hit a pole.........he lived, but lost both legs if I recall...bit write up in the paper about how he was Saving Lives!! BTW, the folks in the car had gotten out of the car on their own and were fine!!
