LORAIN PUMPER INVOLVED IN CRASH

TWO TRANSPORTED TO HOSPITAL

Lorain – A collision at the intersection of Elyria Ave and East 35th Street in Lorain this afternoon has sent two people to the hospital with minor injuries.

Lorain Fire Department’s Pumper 1 was returning to their station this afternoon around 2:15 pm when it collided with a small four door Honda SUV. Witnesses say the driver of the SUV ran a stop sign while traveling west on 35th and the Pumper was traveling north on Elyria where there are no stop signs.

The collision pushed the SUV off the road taking down the street sign and stop sign.

LifeCare Ambulance Paramedics treated and transported 42-year-old Kellie Glenn of Cleveland and her infant son, to Community Health Partners with minor injuries - both were released a short time later.

Pumper 1 was returning from a fire call on Canton Ave when the crash occurred. None of the Firefighters on board were injured in the crash.

The Lorain Police Department is investigating the crash - Glenn will likely be charged with failure to yield the stop sign.
