Portland Pin-ins 1-18-15 & 1-19-15

1-18-15 Airport Way around 125th Ave.

The sole occupant and driver was in the back seat of a 4-door sedan on its top. He said he could get out, but was unable to move. He was very large (300+).

After stabilizing the car with 2 struts, they had to remove both doors so he could be taken out.

1-19-15 SE 82nd Ave. & Yamhill St.

After colliding in the intersection, one car continued about 50 feet before hitting a chain link fence and breaking off a gas meter on the side of a building. Part of the fence, a pipe, went through the windshield, just missing the driver's face.

The passenger and drive had to be removed through a back door. The escaping gas could not be shut off at the meter so the firefighters had to mask up until  the gas company got it shut off.
