Rescue 1 was dispatched to motor vehicle collision at
Littlefield Middle School NC41 North of Lumberton. Rescue
110 responded to the scene. A vehicle was involved in a
collision on NC41, left the roadway, drove across the front
yard of the school, and into one of the school entrances.
The vehicle struck a wall and stopped approximately 60 feet
inside the school near the cafeteria. The driver of the
vehicle was entrapped. After determining the structure was
safe, Rescue 1 personnel used the Jaws of Life to remove the
driver's door and access the patient. The driver was removed
from his vehicle and transported by Rescue 1 paramedics to
Southeastern Regional Medical Center in Lumberton with
serious injuries. There were no other injuries related to
the incident. Agencies who also responded to the scene were
