On Saturday afternoon, March 9, 2019, firefighters from the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire District responded to a multi-vehicle collision at the intersection of Algonquin Road and Harvest Gate Road. Upon arrival, crews discovered two cars with significant damage. Two individuals from one vehicle and one person from the other were taken to the hospital for further evaluation. Firefighters used specialized tools to remove parts of the car to safely extract the injured driver.
Two ambulances from Algonquin and one from Huntley arrived on scene to transport the patients. Fortunately, the remaining occupants of the second vehicle were not seriously injured. The crash is currently under investigation, and authorities are working to determine the cause of the accident.
