BOISE, IDAHO

Firefighters with the Boise Fire Department responded as mutual aid from the Idaho State Patrol and Boise County to assist with rescuing a driver who had gone over an embankment down the steep hill and snow-covered landscape.

He was assessed by two members of the Bogus Basin Ski Patrol before being pulled from the crashed car before he was extricated from the vehicle. After an ambulance arrived, Medics evaluated their patient and then transported him to a nearby hospital.
