Incident Report
Glen Park Fire responded to a major two-vehicle crash near the New York Truckstop in Watertown on Tuesday morning, with early reports indicating airbags had deployed and one pickup remained in the roadway. The incident, logged at 7:03 a.m., was initially dispatched as a personal-injury accident involving two pickup trucks near the truck stop, but dispatch soon corrected the report to indicate no confirmed injuries. Law enforcement was requested early for traffic control at the scene.
As the response unfolded, radio traffic confirmed two vehicles were involved and that one vehicle had overturned onto its side in the median, prompting a tow request from a state trooper. Glen Park Fire units arrived within minutes, and an engine reported on scene at the original crash shortly after 7:11 a.m. During the same period, dispatch issued a second call for a nearby crash in the Watertown Supply area with unknown injuries, leading to a split response. Medic 3 was assigned toward the first crash while Guilfoyle Medic 7 handled the second incident.
Conditions at the truck stop crash were later downgraded by command to property damage only. An ambulance was briefly requested, but responders then determined no EMS transport was needed, and medics were canceled. Troopers later reported that both vehicles from the truck stop crash required towing due to heavy damage. The incident remained active for scene management and apparatus movement between the two nearby crashes before Glen Park Fire cleared the call at 7:35 a.m., about 31 minutes after dispatch.
