At 11:08 this morning volunteers from the Center Moriches FD were dispatched to a Motor Vehicle Accident with injuries in front of the Cedar Lodge Nursing home on Frowein Road. When fire units arrived on scene they found an 18 wheel dump truck on its side in the sand pit across from the nursing home.
The driver of the dump truck stated he was unloading dirt when something shifted and the dump truck flipped on its side. The driver was able to self-extricate himself from the truck and was transported to the hospital with minor injuries.
