On January 9, 2020 at approximately 1748 hours Oakland Communications received a 911 call reporting a motor vehicle accident with overturned vehicle and possible entrapment at the intersection of Pawnee Avenue and Iroquois Avenue.

Upon the arrival of Oakland police, officers confirmed one vehicle was on its roof with three occupants still seat-belted in the vehicle. With the assistance of the police officers, the three occupants who suffered minor injuries were able to self extricate from the vehicle. The three were then evaluated by members of the Oakland Volunteer Ambulance Corp.

The fire department secured both vehicles and stood by until the overturned vehicle was up-righted and removed.
