Four cars collide in chain crash in Tallinn's Lasnamäe district
A four-car collision occurred on Tuesday, 27 October, in the Lasnamäe district of Tallinn, Estonia's capital. No one was injured.
On Tuesday, 27 October, at 9:19 a.m., the emergency centre in Estonia received a report of a chain-reaction crash in Lasnamäe, a district of the capital Tallinn. Four cars collided on Peterburi tee. One of the drivers involved reported the incident and said that nobody was hurt.
Rescuers from Kesklinn, Tallinn's central district, arrived at the scene along with ambulance crews and police. The rescuers found that each vehicle had only the driver inside. Paramedics examined everyone on site, and no one needed to be taken to hospital, according to the Northern Rescue Centre (Põhja Rescue Centre).
Rescuers spread absorbent over fluids that had leaked from the vehicles and disconnected the battery terminals to eliminate the risk of fire. The cars were also separated from one another and cleared off the road. The police then took over handling the incident.
