A 26-year-old man was extricated early Saturday morning from a vehicle crash in Ewa Beach.
The Honolulu Fire Department received a 911 call at 1:09 a.m. for a single-vehicle crash near 91-1636 Fort Weaver Road in Ewa Beach with five HFD units staffed with approximately 15 personnel. The first firefighters arrived at the scene at 1:15 a.m to find a vehicle resting on its wheels after an apparent rollover crash.
The first arriving HFD unit assessed, stabilized, and de-energized the vehicle. Due to the severe damage to the roof of the vehicle, battery-powered hydraulic rescue tools were used to move the roof and remove the door to free the single occupant from the vehicle.
Once the passenger of the vehicle was freed from the vehicle, medical care was transferred to Honolulu Emergency Medical Services at 1:35 a.m. The Honolulu Emergency Services Department reported that the man was treated and was awake when he was transported to a nearby hospital.
