KALAMAZOO, MI: On Sunday, October 2, 2016, at approximately 0400 hours officers responded to the area of Douglas and Paterson for an unknown accident. The caller reported that a vehicle had crashed and was upside down. The first arriving officers located one lone male occupant trapped inside the vehicle. The male inside the vehicle had visible injuries however remained conscious and alert as officers utilized the hydraulic tools from the fire engine to pry and cut an opening into the vehicle.
