Arlington Heights one-car crash, 10-21-15

Here's an update from Scott Peterson:

A vehicle struck a power pole on Rand Road, just west of Arlington Heights Road. There was no one trapped in the vehicle. The driver stayed inside until Com-Ed arrived and shut off the power. This particular pole had a transformer attached to it. Com-Ed reached the scene within 20 minutes of the fire departmentâ€™s arrival. Once they confirmed it was safe, Arlington Heights Fire Department crews removed the driver and transported them to Northwest Community Hospital.

Eng 4, Amb 4, Squad 2, and Battalion 1 were on scene.
