Firefighters worked to free a driver trapped inside a white Hyundai sedan after a two-vehicle crash at East 19th Street and Highway 231 in Panama City on Friday afternoon. The crash, reported around 4:20 PM, involved the Hyundai and a black GMC pickup, and brought out a tower truck, battalion chief, and multiple engines.

Both vehicles were expected to need tow trucks, so plan for delays at that intersection.
