SHIRLEY, NY - On Friday, November 5th at about 8:05 A.M., the Suffolk County 9-1-1 communications center received a call reporting a motor vehicle crash with a person reportedly trapped on the William Floyd Parkway, just south of Dawn Drive. Suffolk Police dispatch sent officers from the 7th precinct while fire rescue dispatchers started out Shirley Ambulance, Brookhaven FD and Mastic FD for a heavy rescue MVA.
Shirley Ambulance arrived on scene and advised Brookhaven FD 1st Assistant Chief Anthony Verni {5-3-31} that they had a confirmed person pinned in the vehicle. Brookhaven Rescue 3 responded into the scene along with Chief 31, and upon further assessment the driver of the Mirage was pronounced dead.
