Firefighters safely extricated the occupant of a vehicle that rolled onto its side following a morning crash in Kanata.

Emergency crews responded to the collision at the intersection of Templeford Avenue and Tabaret Street just before 9 a.m. Sunday.

The Ottawa Fire Services said when crews arrived on the scene, firefighters confirmed one of the vehicles had rolled onto its side with an occupant trapped inside.

“Crews quickly stabilized the vehicle and advanced a charged hose line as a precaution,” Nick DeFazio, Ottawa Fire Services Public Information Officer, said.

“Using specialized hydraulic tools, firefighters safely extricated the occupant.”

The Ottawa Paramedic Service says no injuries were reported following the crash.

Firefighters also spread absorbent on leaking fluids and cleared debris from the road before clearing the scene, according to DeFazio.
