Guest guest Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 From G's TSL In what appears to be at least one LODD, 2 people died in an Iowa crash involving a Carroll County EMS ambulance and a semi around noon today. The semi was in the left lane attempting to make a left hand turn onto a county highway in Boone County (near the Town of Beaver) when the driver saw flashing lights and attempted to pull back into the right lane, at the same time the ambulance also attempted to move into that lane to get around the semi and the two vehicles hit head on. Unfortunately the front end of the ambulance was caved in. Additional reports indicate that when responding fire-rescue crews arrived on the scene, they said a woman told them her co-worker in the back of the ambulance was DOA. That woman, a Carroll County EMS crew member with significant injuries, apparently fought to save her patient and the ambulance driver. We will have more details soon on our home page. Louis N.

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 I'd not had a chance to Google map it but was afraid it would hit home for you. I imagine Iowa EMS is pretty tight but next County is rough. Knowing the persons personally. Well I've been there and done that. Not fun at all. Louis N.

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 Oh my! This is terrible. Thoughts with the family of the deceased and the survivors. G Re: EMS LODD Iowa This is the county next to mine and the service that we work with very closely; sharing medics. It was a HORRIBLE crash. I am currently in the east to start the National EMS Memorial Bike Ride to honor LODD. I received the call at 14:00 today.
