“The operations officer immediately dispatched five fire units to the scene. After arriving at the scene of the reported accident, they confirmed the collision of two passenger vehicles. Four people were traveling in one. Firefighters extricated three of them from the vehicle on a spinal board. The fourth person was already out of the vehicle. The driver was driving alone in the second car,” explained regional fire department spokeswoman Lucie Javoříková.
Despite first aid and resuscitation attempts, the passenger succumbed to her injuries. According to the spokeswoman for the Zlín Region Medical Rescue Service, Gabriela Netopilová Sluštíková, her injuries were incompatible with life.
