At 1357 hours on January 8, 2012 the West Grove Fire Company and Southern Chester County EMS was dispatched to the intersection of Baltimore Pike and Lake Road in London Grove Township for accident reported with occupants trapped.

Rescue 22 arrived on the scene and began work to free the occupant. The crews stabilized the vehicles and utilized the jaws of life to remove both front passenger and rear passenger doors. The occupant was extricated in less then 15 minutes and Ambulance 22 and Medic 94 assessed and transported the patient to Christiana Trauma Center for evaluation.

Command was terminated shortly after patients were transported. The scene was turned over to Pennsylvania State Police.
