Roll over accident on Old Post Road

Caitlyn Main was first on the scene for a rollover on Old Post. 

Her mother Kelly asked her if she needed me to come until the ambulance gets there, her response "I got this. This is all in the training."

Caitlyn Main was at home on Maple Hill Road when around 8:00 p.m. she heard a loud bang from the area close to her friend's house and thought immediately that something must be wrong.  Trained as a fire fighter Castleton, Caitlyn is no stranger to emergencies.

Serious Accident injures three

An accident on Maple Hill Road. A car with three passengers traveling at a high rate of speed, according to Schodack Police, crossed the double line, striking a parked car.  The car then struck a road sign and sheared a utility pole before coming to rest in the field.  The passengers suffered minor injuries and were taken by Castleton Ambulance to Albany Medical Center.
