CO poisoning symptoms often get mistaken for flu symptoms! Please at least install 1 detector near where you sleep if you can not afford more.

Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services (MCFRS) responded to a collision involving a pedestrian pinned under a vehicle in the Giant Food parking lot on Old Columbia Pike in Burtonsville on Thursday, December 26. The patient was extricated and treated by emergency medical personnel but later succumbed to their injuries. According to Montgomery County Police, “At approximately 11:30 a.m., 3rd District officers and Montgomery County Fire Rescue personnel were dispatched to the location for the report of a collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian. The preliminary investigation has revealed that an adult female was struck by a vehicle at the location and transported to an area hospital where she later died. The driver of the striking vehicle remained at the scene. This is an active and ongoing investigation. More information will be released, including the name of the decedent, following proper notification of next of kin.” Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services (MCFRS) responded to the scene of a crash involving a bus and pedestrian on Germantown Rd and Wisteria Dr. in Germantown on Thursday night. According to MCFRS Chief Spokesperson Pete Piringer, MCFRS evaluated a “person pinned beneath bus with traumatic, life-threatening injury.” A subsequent update by Piringer stated that the person was not transported to a hospital, meaning the collision was fatal. The Montgomery County Police Department (MCPD) is now handling the investigation. Per MCPD, “Westbound Germantown Road is closed between Wisteria Drive and Middlebrook Road due to a traffic collision. Drivers are advised to seek an alternate route. Expect significant delays.”
