Four Firemen Suffer Hurts In Collision

Four Firemen Suffer Hurts In Collision Four Camden firemen were among persons injured over the weekend in motor vehicle accidents on South Jersey roads. The firemen were injured when their engine collided with a tractor-trailer at 2nd and Market sts. Saturday about 4.30 p. m. while they were on their way to answer an alarm which was false. Admitted to Cooper Hospital with arm, hip and knee injuries was Orville Goldsboro, 33, of 1730 S. 9th st. Released after treatment were August Johnson, 39, of 916½ Chestnut st., who suffered multiple bruises; Reginald Laws, 36, of 1453 Bradley ave., chest and back injuries, and Capt. Raymond Amos, 52, of 825 Washington st., leg injuries. Intersection Crash According to police, the fire apparatus, operated by James Clinton, was traveling north on 2nd st. and collided at the intersection with the tractor-trailer, driven by James E. Tarburton Jr., 32, of St. John's dr., Wilmington, Dela. The impact of the crash tossed the firemen off the rear step of the fire truck, which was forced over a curb and along a sidewalk for about 35 feet. The vehicle sideswiped two parked cars and knocked down a parking meter. Tarburton was charged with failure to yield the right of way to a fire apparatus. The false alarm was turned in from a box at Poynt and Erie sts.
