A traffic accident in the Rafelbunyol industrial estate left a driver trapped inside their vehicle, requiring firefighter intervention for extrication.

Firefighters from the Provincial Consortium of Valencia responded this afternoon to an incident in the Rafelbunyol industrial estate. The crash involved a car and a forklift in a high-impact collision.
The event, which occurred around 12:48 PM on Horteta Street, created a particularly complex scene, as one of the forklift's blades penetrated the vehicle's interior.
As a result of the impact, the car's driver became trapped among the wreckage, necessitating the intervention of rescue teams. Personnel from the Moncada and La Pobla de Farnals fire stations, along with a sergeant from Sagunto, carried out the extrication efforts.
After being freed, the injured person was attended to by medical services at the scene.
