Western Salisbury Volunteer Fire Company and Eastern Salisbury Fire Department firefighter vehicle rescue technicians use heavy-duty hydraulic cutting tools to demonstrate how they work together at accident scenes to free victims trapped in crashed vehicles. Sometimes the only way to safely rescue victims at a vehicle crash is to cut into and dismantle the vehicle. The demonstration was part of National Night Out activities at Salisbury Middle School Aug. 4.Photo Courtesy of Western Salisbury Volunteer Fire Company
