All of the victims were out of the vehicles upon our arrival and none of them appeared to be injured. Seguin EMS and McQueeney EMTs evaluated the patients and all signed refusals, there were no patient transports.  M eeney VFD assisted with traffic control and hazard mitigation of an oil spill from one of the vehicles and we remained on scene until both vehicles were towed and all debris was removed from the roadway.
