A winter snow storm that began yesterday morning and has pretty much come to end today brought about 10 inches of snow to the State College area. The storm kept the area bustling with multiple fender benders. The Alpha Fire Co. responded to several vehicle accidents, one of which required the use of the Jaws of Life to pop a door to get the driver out a garbage truck. In addition to the several vehicle accidents that the company responded to, we were also dispatched to an automatic alarm and a carbon monoxide alarm.
