Godfrey Fire Protection District Assistant Fire Chief Eric Cranmer said a male driver in one of the vehicles had to be extricated. Cranmer said the man was transported to a local hospital with what appeared to be “non-life threatening injuries.”

The driver in the other vehicle refused treatment, Cranmer said.

The Alton Fire Department was called to the scene in the mutual aid dispatch because Godfrey had a pumper on the other run at the time of the emergency call. The Alton Fire Department brought an ambulance to the scene; LifeStar Ambulance Services also arrived on scene.
