The Killingworth ambulance earlier this week was involved in a minor motor vehicle accident. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries, but the ambulance is temporarily out of service.
In the meantime, the Killingworth Ambulance Association (KAA) will operate a vehicle it acquired on loan Thursday from the Clinton Ambulance Service.
“Many thanks to Clinton Ambulance,” said KAA president Dan O’Sullivan.
Shortly after Killingworth’s ambulance was incapacitated, Valley Shore — the area dispatch service — was immediately notified, and all ambulance calls were then covered through the Valley Shore mutual aid association that Killingworth has with neighboring towns.
Killingworth has been continuously covered with respect to ambulance services.
“We would like to thank those surrounding ambulance services that have been taking care of our citizens in the interim,” said O’Sullivan.
