After the initially determining no life was present in the occupant of the car,  crews stood-by and assisted with scene stabilization by continuous determining if the cargo the truck was carrying was leaking or in danger of fire.  The crews immediately on arrival at scene laid down a 1 3/4" charged hoseline for protection of all personnel working around the incident scene.

The accident occurred at 10:10 a.m. just north of the old Hyde Park police station and south of the intersection with Deer Hill Road on Route 9G when according to authorities a car traveling northbound struck a southbound car head on turning it sideways into the path of the southbound truck which could not avoid the collision striking the vehicle pushing it into the farm field on the westside of Rt. 9G.
