Shortly after 3:30am, the Downingtown Fire Department was alerted to an auto accident at Boot Road and Clover Mill Road in East Caln Township. Initial reports indicated two occupants inside an overturned vehicle who were unable to get out. Crews arrived to find one vehicle partially in a building with occupants still inside the vehicle. Fire and EMS crews were able to quickly access the patients by entering the structure and cutting through the windshield. Both occupants were transported to a local trauma center for treatment. Due to the damage to the structure, the Chester County Structural Collapse Team was requested to provide stabilization prior to the vehicle being removed. Also assisting on-scene was Uwchlan Ambulance Corps.

The incident is under investigation by the Downingtown Police Department.
