It was a challenging rescue for crews. The teenager fell some 100 feet onto the rocks below in an off-limits area of the park.“Medically stabilized the patient,” said East Pierce Asst. Fire Chief Bill Sandlian. “Did triage on the patient.”
“They set up the rope rescue system, the vertical rope, and assisted in getting the patient on that rope system into a scopes basket,” said Sandlian, describing the lengthy process. “These are very challenging. Fire crews there answered more than 80 calls in 24 hours, including two house fires and a fire at an apartment building.That is how Moore described what East Pierce firefighters faced on July Fourth.
The good news is that during the rescue no one died but the teenager is seriously hurt. He damaged his back and his head when he fell.
