Extrication Required in Mount Holly Crash
The impact of the accident was so severe that the victim, an 85-year-old woman, was trapped in her vehicle. This led to firefighters having to use the jaws of life and other tools to extricate her before EMTs and paramedics could provide care.
Police received an initial report of the crash around 9:20 in the morning. It occurred at the intersection of Route 541 with Fairground Plaza. According to Mount Holly Police Chief Richard Spitler, the victim pulled out of the shopping center trying to cross Route 541 and was hit by a vehicle traveling north on 541.
Once extricated, the victim was flown to an area hospital where she was pronounced deceased. The driver of the second vehicle was not injured in the crash.
