Interstate MVA
In this accident, the maroon Mustang caught fire after colliding with the teal Toyota. That fire was extinguished by a Road Ranger with a portable extinguisher prior to the arrival of Volusia County Fire Services.
The Road Ranger, with assistance from citizens, removed the occupant of the Mustang while an off duty Volusia County Fire Services firefighter stopped and assisted with extrication and patient care for the occupant of the Toyota. That patient was airlifted to Halifax Hospital as a trauma alert. The Toyota's fire was extinguished by fire crews while they were stabilizing the vehicle for extrication of the patient.
Interstate 4 eastbound lanes were closed for about one hour after the accident. Squad 35, Engine 42, Battalion 40 and Division 10 responded to the scene.
