Road traffic collision

The Fire Service received a call from a lady and her dog stuck in a car that had overturned and was on its side.  Two fire engines from Ilminster and Taunton attended.

Fire crews had to proceed on foot to the vehicle's location due to the weather conditions and requested off road vehicles from Taunton and Wellington for access.

Fire crews released one female and her dog from the vehicle using stabilisation equipment and small tools.  The incident was left in the hands of Police.  This side road will remain shut until the vehicle can be recovered which may be delayed due to the weather conditions.
