continued from p.7 Emergency vehicles responded in force. Advanced care paramedics, flight paramedics and Oakville firefighters worked in concert to methodically extricate the driver. It took nearly three hours to complete. This also included an emergency run of transfusions from Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital to the scene, as well as the police escort of a crane truck required for the rescue operation. At just after 2:30 p.m., the driver was removed from the truck's partially-crushed cab. Within minutes he was rushed by ambulance a short distance and then transferred to an Ornge air ambulance waiting on Dundas Crane used to extricate victim Street. The Guelph resident was airlifted to Hamilton General Hospital in serious condition -- he has since been upgraded to stable condition. The scene was watched anxiously by coworkers and nearby residents. Halton police closed Dundas Street in both directions to accommodate the airlift of the victim and reopened the road shortly after 3 p.m. The Collision Reconstruction Unit (CRU) is assisting the Ministry of Labour inspector, who has taken the lead in this investigation. Police say they will not release the name of the injured man. 9 | Wednesday, October 23, 2013 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com WIN a $250 donation to a charity of your choice AND $100 Gift Card to Whole Foods Market.... just by telling your Random Act of Kindness story For full contest rules and regulations, visit theocf.org Protect yourself and your family this winter.
