This just happened earlier today near 74th and Morgan Streets. An unfortunate accident involving Chicago Fire Department Ambulance 89 and an SUV has left six individuals injured, including two EMTs. It seems that the ambulance was on its way to the hospital with a patient and their family members when the collision occurred.
From what I’ve gathered, the basic life support ambulance had its emergency lights and siren activated at the time of the crash. One EMT was driving, while another was attending to the patient and their relatives in the back. The exact nature of the patient's condition remains unclear, but everyone involved appears to have been conscious and communicative at the scene.
Thankfully, none of the injuries seem to be life-threatening, though all six people were still transported to nearby hospitals for further evaluation. Emergency services worked quickly to extricate the driver of the SUV, which ended up resting against a traffic light post after the impact. Photos show significant damage to both vehicles, especially on the driver's side of the ambulance.
I arrived shortly after the scene had been cleared of patients, and there were still visible signs of the crash—scrapes, dents, and broken glass scattered around. The first responder photos really capture the extent of the damage; you can see how severe it was for both the ambulance and the other vehicle involved.
It’s always a sobering reminder of the risks faced by first responders, even when they’re just trying to do their job. For now, the Chicago Fire Department is investigating the incident, and we should keep those affected by this crash in our thoughts as they recover.
