While speeding, a sedan crashed into a parked pickup truck before landing in a tree along 17th Avenue in Laval-Ouest on the evening of Monday, April 21.
Two men in their early twenties were in the vehicle when they lost control in spectacular fashion in this residential area near 74th Street, wedged between Chemin Saint-Antoine and Sainte-Rose Boulevard.
At 8:39 p.m., 911 was alerted to the accident, prompting Laval’s Fire Department to dispatch four units, including 14 firefighters and their officers, to the scene.
Upon arrival at 8:45 p.m., firefighters had to use extrication tools to free one of the two victims from the vehicle, which had ended up sideways in the branches of a tree.
By 8:48 p.m., the firefighters handed over the two young men—suffering from leg injuries and various traumas—to paramedics from Urgences-santé.
Laval police are continuing their investigation to shed light on the unusual circumstances of this crash.
