***  WATCH ***  WOMAN TRANSPORTED TO CCH AFTER NARROWLY ESCAPING CATASTROPHIC INJURIES IN W. BARNSTABLE

WEST BARNSTABLE, MASSACHUSETTS – As you will see and hear in the following HN Video, at around 7:18 a.m. this morning, Barnstable Police patrol officers and West Barnstable FD firefighters rushed to the area of 1740 Prospect Street for a single-vehicle rollover into the woods with entrapment. When HN arrived on scene, the young adult female driver (and sole occupant) had already managed to self-extricate. She was reported to be conscious and alert… and was eventually transported to Cape Cod Hospital with injuries not believed to be life-threatening. A first responder commented regarding how fortunate it was the impact with the tree only caved in the roof over the backseat, instead of the front seat. Her life was quite likely saved by a matter of inches. West Barnstable FD transported the patient to CCH, while Barnstable Police investigated the cause of the crash. And a local towing company did a remarkable job of making the removal of the mangled vehicle look easy… The following HN Video highlights the scene… [HN VIDEO – PRESS PLAY] P.S. – Today’s Hytown Vignette is a brought to you by Pat Metheny…  [CLICK IT/CRANK IT!
