One person was injured after falling with their car inside a jameo in Tinajo. The accident occurred this Tuesday at 3:47 p.m. behind the Craft Fair in Mancha Blanca.

Alerted by a phone call from CECOES, the firefighters went to the scene to rescue the injured person who was inside the car. Upon arriving at the area, they verified that it was a lateral rollover of a car, and that there was a person trapped inside.

Immediately afterwards, they accessed the interior of the vehicle and checked the condition of the injured person, requiring medical attention and placing a neck brace, a short and long board to be able to rescue him from inside the car.

Once outside, he was evaluated by a doctor and transferred to the ambulance on a speleology stretcher. Afterwards, the injured person was slid and transferred to the Jose Molina Orosa Hospital in a basic life support ambulance.

Local Police, Civil Guard and health services also went to the scene.
