Piikani Fire responds to two motor vehicle accidents

Toni Lucas, Pincher Creek Voice

Piikani Volunteer Fire Department responded to two incidents yesterday evening December 6 at approximately 6:30 pm, according to Volunteer Fire Officer Keith Knowlton.  The first involved three cars and a truck at the bottom of Scott's Coulee, east of Brocket.  Pincher Creek Emergency Services assisted with the call and one patient was transported to Pincher Creek Hospital with undetermined injuries.  The second accident occurred in the Summerview area.  Knowlton was unsure of the details at this time because he was not on scene.

Knowlton said volunteers were out for three and a half hours in the bitter cold performing highway control and clean up.  "It was sheer ice out there, and so cold."
