A person has been freed from a vehicle overnight at Lake Macquarie.
Emergency services, including police, RFS and ambulance, were called to Silverwater Road, Silverwater just before 7pm, where they found a vehicle had collided with a tree and the occupant was still trapped inside.
Fire and Rescue NSW extricated the occupant who was then transferred into the care of paramedics.
Superintendent Scott Dodson says this is a timely reminder that calling Triple Zero (000) for a fire emergency can be the difference between life and death, or a building or other property being saved or destroyed.
