Truck Strikes Jubelt's

The Litchfield Fire Department responded to a call reporting a vehicle that struck a building at Jubelt's  Bakery and Restaurant. Upon arrival, the fire department found a four-door white Dodge pickup truck partially inside the structure, having struck the southwest corner of the building. The cab of the truck had pierced the wall
and came to rest in the back portion of the structure. Fortunately, the occupant was already out of the vehiclebefore Fire and EMS arrival. He was promptly evaluated and ultimately transported to St. Francis Hospital for further care.

Fire personnel worked to isolate the utilities and electrical panel. Two personnel along with the City of Litchfield Builiding Inspector accessed the roof. They made three cuts to the roof of the damaged part of the structure before Brian’s Towing safely removed the truck. The Litchfield Street Department was contacted to
bring fence panels to isolate the area overnight. Four panels were set up to deter anyone from trying to enter the structure. After the scene was secured command was terminated and all units returned to service.

The Litchfield Fire Department would like to thank all those involved in the quick and efficient response to thisincident and assure the community that the necessary steps have been taken to secure the area for publicsafety.
