Shirley NY- On Saturday October 6, 2018 at about 4:36 PM the Brookhaven Fire Department was activated for a Motor Vehicle accident at the intersection of the Southbound William Floyd Parkway and Havenwood Dr. Lieutenant Brian Dean was the first to arrive on scene and advised he had a 2 vehicle MVA but no one was trapped. He advised he would need EMS for 1 patient who was in a Taxi that was involved in the crash.

Fire fighters quickly located the battery in the trunk of the taxi and were able to secure it. Speedy dry was needed for a small fluid spill on the ground.
