We're going to a motor vehicle accident that's
out on Highway 11 bridge.
10-4, copy that.
A vehicle's on fire and people trapped.
Doesn't sound good.
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): We've had some really
bad accidents on that bridge.
It's just a little two-lane bridge, and it's very dark.
KEELEY: I'm on scene.
Wow.
WOMAN: [crying]
[chatter]
KEELEY: Oh, OK.
So we have four total?
KEELEY: All right.
We get a call for a MVA.
There are two vehicles, one that is still
smoking and another that has two children in it,
along with the driver.
The driver of the car that caught on fire,
she was very lucky.
Apparently, a passerby stopped and opened a door
and helped her out of the vehicle before it
got fully engulfed in flames.
All right.
Let's get a-- I got the-- this--
I think this one has the seat-- the car seat in it.
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): The baby is maybe four or five months old.
She's a newborn almost.
I see some brush burns on her, like little abrasions
to the head.
Hi.
[baby crying]
Oh.
Oh, all right.
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): She starts crying,
so that's always a good sign.
Oh, my goodness.
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): Because that means that they're feeling
any pain that they might have and that they're scared
and know what's going on.
If you have a baby that's quiet that has just
been through something as traumatic as this,
that's always a cause of concern.
KEELEY: That one's OK?
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): I get the baby girl all set,
and firemen bring her older sister in.
KEELEY: OK, what hurts you?
GIRL: [crying]
That hurts?
All right, all right.
You want me to get you a little something that's cold
or put some cold on it?
GIRL: Uh-huh.
All right.
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): I start to talk to her and assess her.
I see she's got some swelling to her lips and nose area.
You want to hold that?
Uh-uh.
- You want me to hold it? - Uh-huh.
All right, I'm going to sit right here and hold it for you.
Can you wiggle your feet?
Oh, very good.
I like those tennis shoes.
[crying]
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): The firemen were taking care of the mom.
Apparently she had a--
what appeared to be a broken arm or a broken elbow.
Mommy.
Your mom-- we're going to get your mommy
in, in just a minute, OK?
The baby-- look I got your baby.
She's doing good too.
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): She keeps asking about the baby.
I thought she was asking about her sister.
I kept telling her, baby's right here she's fine, she's fine.
WOMAN: She's got a doll in the back.
KEELEY: All right, we're going-- we're
going to get you doll for you.
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): Come to find out,
she was talking about her baby doll.
Christine's going to go get your doll, OK?
OK.
Keep sliding.
Ow, ow, ow!
[crying]
GIRL: No, no.
No.
KEELEY: Sweetheart.
Oh, Christine got your doll.
Yay.
Yay!
KEELEY: All right.
She's got that little mark on her head.
That would meet trauma criteria.
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): The mom is in a lot
worse shape than the children, so we
need to get her to the doctor.
Are you all right with them to Oshawa
or you want them at University?
KEELEY (VOICEOVER): The two children,
they were very lucky that they were properly
secured in car seats, and that's the only thing
that saved their lives.
If that hadn't have been in play,
I'm almost pretty sure it would have been at least one
fatality, if not two.
KEELEY: It's hot, huh?
I keep thinking I'm having hot flashes.
