St.Hyacinthe firefighters used two extrication units simultaneously (each equiped with two extrication tools) to free a woman pined in her car. St.Simon firefighters provided fire protection and assisted St.Hyacinthe firefighters. St.Hyacinthe paramedics were present in and around the vehicle during the entire operation, and then transported the victim to the nearest hospital.
