3 Vancouver fire engines and one ladder truck were sent to the I-205 SB exit to WB Hwy 14 for a semi-truck that had rolled over at 7:48 this morning. First arriving units found an unconscious man in the cab of the semi that was being taken care of by an off duty Pararescueman from the 304th out of Portland, and an off-duty Portland Firefighter. The driver was extricated by Vancouver firefighters and after about 25 minutes the man was freed from the semi and transported by AMR in critical condition. The accident is under investigation by WSP.
