ALFRED — A two-car collision at the intersection of Gore and Gile roads on Wednesday morning sent two people to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to Alfred Fire & Rescue Public Information Officer Jarrett Clarke.
The department was dispatched to the intersection in north Alfred just after 9:35 a.m. for a report of a two-car collision with entrapment and injury.
“The original size up of the scene determined the need for more ambulances and additional extrication equipment,” said Clarke.
Clarke said Sanford and Waterboro fire departments provided mutual aid, both with extraction equipment and ambulances.
He said two people were extracted from their vehicle by fire department personnel and transported to the hospital.
The department did not release the names of the injured.
The crash remains under investigation by Maine State Police.
