Shore News Network

On Sunday, at approximately 7:45pm, the Beachwood Fire Department was dispatched to Birch and Surf Park to set up a landing zone for a severely injured subject.

Upon arrival, Command Units and MONOC’s medical airship found the location was unable to be used due to the powdery snow conditions.

The landing zone was then relocated to the parking lot of the Beachwood Elementary School. Fire Department personnel assisted the Beachwood First Aid, South Toms River First Aid and MONOC medics with the patient.
