UTV crash near Ovalo: At least 1 airlifted
TAYLOR COUNTY, Texas () – People involved in a UTV accident near Ovalo were transported by ambulance and medical helicopter for their injuries on Sunday afternoon.
On May 4, the Jim Ned Volunteer Fire Department, Lawn Volunteer Fire Department, Buffalo Gap Volunteer Fire Department, Taylor County EMS, Taylor County Sheriff's Office and Texas Game Wardens provided mutual aid for a UTV crash east of Ovalo.
Jim Ned VFD reported that the remote location of the accident made it difficult for first responders to locate those involved. They were transported by UTV and truck to an awaiting ambulance and a Native Air 39 medical helicopter. The conditions of those involved are unknown at this time.
'We would like to thank all the agencies involved and wish those injured a speedy recovery,' Jim Ned VFD shared online.
