Frederick County Box 9-8. At 1725 hrs, "Carroll" dispatched Paramedic 89 for a bicyclist struck in the 12700 block of Bunker Hill Road. As units from Frederick Co. were responding, "Frederick" upgraded the response to a rescue incident, advising that the incident involved a motorcycle. At 1730 hrs, Rescue Squad 8 and Engine 81 were added to the incident.
As units and personnel from Frederick and Carroll Counties arrived, Frederick Chief 9 established "Bunker Hill Command" and advised there was no rescue.
