05/29/2006: Overturn Into Boston Market

LINDENHURST, NY - Just as the Lindenhurst FD was settling down after their Annual Memorial Day Parade they were dispatched to an MVA involving a rollover MVA and a building at 1:45pm this afternoon.

The vehicle was occupied by two people and was traveling East down Montauk Highway when a malfunction with the tire caused the vehicle to veer off the road where it flipped into the side of the Boston Market restaurant at the corner of Mountauk and E Shore Road.

Lindenhurst FD rolled out two ambulances (1-6-17 and 1-6-7) as well as other fire fighting personnel and apparatus'.

The unrestrained driver and passenger climbed out of the vehicle. The driver was walking around and did not wish treatment and remained at the scene while his passenger was found sitting on the sidewalk where he was boarded/collared and transported to a nearby hospital.
