Medics had another very busy day tending to 19 patients, including assisting a passenger of a car which was rear-ended in the 22500 block of Highway 99. The patient suffered a minor neck injury and had to be backboarded before being transported to Stevens Hospital.

Medics also tended to three young girls involved in a head-on car collision in the 200 block of Highway 99. All three suffered bruises and were transported to Stevens Hospital.

Firefighters responded to a reported power line down in the 18800 block of 92nd Ave. W.

They extinguished the fire, contacted the PUD and warned all home owners affected by the downed line to remain in their homes until power was secured.
