A Kentucky volunteer firefighter has died from the injuries he sustained while responding to an injury auto crash. The FF was critically injured in the response crash on February 1 and succumbed to his injuries this morning. 28 year old Steven Eric Vanderpool Jr. of West Liberty was responding to that initial vehicle crash in when he failed to yield and ran a stop sign....and another vehicle struck him in the left side. FF Vanderpool was ejected out the driver side door. He was treated and transported to a local hospital and then flown to the U of K Medical Center.

Our deepest sympathies go out to all effected and especially to his family, friends and members of his FD.

Take Care-BE CAREFUL. Another tragic LODD re: stopping at red lights and stop signs.
