Platoon Chief Gary Mosburger says the two vehicles collided head-on and that crews acted quickly to get both drivers out of their wrecked vehicles.

“We had two extrication vehicles on site in about five minutes,” Mosburger said.

There is currently no word on the condition of either driver.

Bradley Avenue was closed as crews worked on the scene Tuesday evening before the road reopened to traffic Wednesday morning.
