At 07:15 Company 5 was alerted for a vehicle into a structure with entrapment at the 200 Block of Blue Course Drive.  Centre Life Link unit 2554 was first on scene and reported 4 vehicles were involved, one vehicle struck the structure and occupants were trapped inside the structure. 3rd Assistant Chief Prestia (503) arrived on scene and established command.

Freguson township police are still investigating the accident, but it is believed that a vehicle went through the intersection at Blue Course and Martin, drove over a curb and through a small grass lawn.  The vehicle first hit the front bumper of the first car, causing minor damage.  The striking vehicle then continued across the parking lot and struck another car, forcing it into the structure.  This caused several feet of intrusion directly at the foot of the bed that the apartment occupants were sleeping in.  The striking vehicle then hit a fourth car before coming to rest.

Building occupants narrowly escaped serious injury and were examined by crews from Centre Life Link EMS.

Crews operated on scene for about 30 minutes.
