Firefighter-Paramedic responds to crash and discovers his daughter

(FOX40.COM) – – It's been nearly a week since firefighter-paramedic Tim Johnson responded to a call about a horrific mishap involving his 16-year-old daughter.

On Nov. 3 she had actually apparently just left for school in her Ford F-150 pickup along Marysville Road in the small Yuba County town of Dobbins. Not long after, Johnson's pager went off from the Peninsula Fire Protection District fire department. His wife called at nearly the very same time.

" I heard the call head out. My other half informed me that it was my child and that she 'd remained in a vehicle mishap," Johnson said. "All I understood is my partner stated it looked pretty bad. My first thought was get to the scene. Trigger I understood I was the only medic in the area."

Johnson stated he simply wanted to rush there and take care of her. He was the first paramedic to get here on-scene and was accompanied by the Oregon House/Dobbins Volunteer Fire Department.

An approaching lorry apparently struck a deer that released through Johnson's child's windscreen, and struck her straight in the face. Her vehicle then careened off the road into a tree.

"I added and stated, Emma, it's daddy. I'm here. I'm gon na look after you," Johnson said.

His daughter was liberated from her car and flown to U.C. Davis Medical Center where she was put on a ventilator and faces deadly hurts. The household assembled a Gofundme account to help with medical expenditures, lodging and travel for the Johnson family.

His daughter is referred to as a fantastic teenager who is a champion rodeo rider who participates in FFA, 4-H and soft ball – – all while preserving grades of A's and B's.

Johnson said he has actually reacted to numerous mishaps in his 20-plus years profession as a firefighter with the Peninsula Fire Protection District, and as a paramedic for 13 of those years. He hopes that his child recuperates fully and quickly.
