Long Beach firefighters rescued two people trapped inside an overturned vehicle that collided with another vehicle in East Long Beach Sunday morning, officials said.

Authorities said the vehicles crashed at Termino Avenue and 7th Street at about 10:30 a.m., leaving one vehicle overturned.

Firefighters used the Jaws of Life and other extraction tools to free the pair inside the overturned vehicle, Long Beach Fire Department spokesman Brian Fisk said.

One of the patients, a 23-year-old woman, was transported to a local trauma hospital in stable condition at 10:46 a.m.

Officials did not have any more information on the patients.

The area was closed for about an hour while the overturned vehicle was moved.
