Motorcycle Accident On TSP
Email Print RSS Facebook Twitter RSS

By 1st Lieutenant Brandon Gembecki
July 18, 2010

At 2:16pm this afternoon the Putnam Valley Fire Department, along with Putnam Valley Ambulance Corps and New York State Police, were requested to respond to the Taconic State Parkway north bound approximately 1/2 mile north of Peekskill Hollow Road for a motorcycle accident. Upon the arrival, Fire Department personnel found the patient approximately 200 feet away from his motorcycle and approximately 50 feet down an embankment. Due to the extent of the patient's injuries, Assistant Chief Angstadt requested a helicopter to respond to take the patient to Westchester Medical Center's Trauma Unit. Fire and EMS crews quickly stabilized and packaged and patient and began to climb the steep embankment. The patient was transported to the helicopter, which was awaiting their arrival, at Peekskill Hollow Road and the TSP.

All units cleared the Taconic at 3:36pm.
