Описание: Wilmot Fire & Rescue Medic 645 and Engine 64, and Ohio State Highway Patrol Post 76 Car 0203 responding for a car vs 2 electric poles and into a field off of Sandusky Drive SW in Sugar Creek Township, Stark County, Ohio.

Additional Information: Brush 1 also responded to the accident but only non-emergency. A dark sedan lost control and took down the first electric pole, sheared off a 2nd one, and went into an agricultural field off of State Route 250 heading east towards Beach City/Strasburg. Vehicle had heavy damage to the front with air bags deployed. Wilmot Captain 6404 assumed command. The occupant of the wrecked car was treated but did not go to the hospital by ambulance, so a refusal was signed. Upon impact, the Village of Wilmot and surrounding Sugar Creek Township lost power. Some businesses and a school in the village were closed because of the outage. American Electric Power was contacted to respond to the scene to replace both poles. The road was restricted to one line while a towing company worked to get the car off the field onto the westbound lane, while vehicles going east and west traveled on the eastbound lane assisted by Wilmot firefighters. Units later cleared the scene after getting the vehicle secured and towed away, and AEP restored power to it's customers by 6:35PM.
