Chester Pass Road crash: Male teenager freed after being trapped in car after it rolled into ditch in Willyung

Emergency service crews have freed a teenager who was trapped in his vehicle after it rolled on Chester Pass Road in Willyung on Friday afternoon. A Department of Fire and Emergency Services spokesperson said four career and volunteer crews from Albany were called to the corner of Chester Pass and Willyung roads at about 3.30pm to free the male teenager. The teenager is believed to have been driving a SsangYong sedan on Chester Pass Road when the car crashed and rolled, coming to rest in a ditch on Willyung Road. Firefighters freed the teenage driver using hydraulic and manual rescue tools and had made the scene safe by 5pm. He is not believed to have sustained life-threatening injuries but has been transported to Albany Health Campus, according to a St John WA spokesperson. Police say that only the teenager’s vehicle was involved in the incident. Traffic on Chester Pass Road was reduced to one lane near the scene before the road was re-opened after emergency services cleaned up.
