6 hurt in Mt. Airy crash of ambulance, SUV
Authorities in Philadelphia say six people have been injured, one critically, in a three-vehicle crash involving an ambulance Wednesday morning about 8:30.
The ambulance was carrying a patient when it struck a sport utility vehicle, and that both vehicles then struck a parked car, officials said.
They say the vehicles ended up on a sidewalk by a Laundromat near the intersection of Chew Avenue and Washington Lane in the city’s East Mount Airy section.
The crash victims are being treated at Albert Einstein Medical Center.
Officials said the Laundromat is closed while crews check for gas leaks or other building problems.
Those injured include two medics and two people in the parked car, according to authorities.
