By Staff Report
Six people are recovering from injuries sustained in a crash that occurred shortly before midnight Saturday, July 2.
Emergency responders were dispatched to a two-vehicle motor vehicle crash at the intersection of State Road 79 and Interstate 10 to find a pickup truck with an overturned boat and trailer and a 4-door sedan with significant damage and airbag deployment.
Bonifay Fire-Rescue, Holmes County Sheriff’s Office and Bonifay Police Department triaged a total of six patients and turned patient care over to Holmes County EMS for treatment and transport. Once patient care was completed, BFR focused on searching for a dog missing from the sedan involved in the crash.
After an extensive search spreading over most of the hospital’s 10-acre property and several sightings, firefighters were able to reunite the dog with its owner near the entrance to the hospital.
