SHALLOTTE—An ambulance and a car were involved in a wreck Tuesday afternoon at the corner of Mulberry and White Streets in Shallotte.
Shallotte Police and the N.C. State Highway Patrol were investigating the cause of the accident that injured four people.
Two people from a Life Star ambulance and the driver of a Nissan passenger vehicle were taken to Brunswick Community Hospital. The passenger in the Nissan was airlifted to New Hanover Regional Medical Center in Wilmington.
Brunswick County EMS Director Brian Watts said no patients were in the ambulance, only a driver and another emergency worker in the front of ambulance. County fire marshal Scott Garner said the ambulance was not responding to an emergency page, and may have been headed to the nearby Autumn Care or Shallotte Assisted Living.
Emergency personnel with the Shallotte Fire Department and the Brunswick County EMS Community Response Team extracted the two people from the Nissan.
