Gilbert, AZ (August 13, 2025) – A serious two-vehicle crash at the intersection of Lindsay Rd and E Williams Field Rd late Tuesday night left at least two individuals injured, including one person found lying on the ground and unable to move. The collision occurred around 10:04 p.m., prompting a multi-agency emergency response from Mesa Fire, Gilbert Fire, and Queen Creek Fire.
According to dispatch audio, witnesses reported heavy smoke rising from the crash site and expressed concern for one of the victims, who was found on the ground and appeared responsive but immobile. It remains unclear whether the individual was ejected from a vehicle or exited after the crash. Bystanders gathered at the scene to assist, but responders quickly arrived to secure the area and provide medical aid.
In addition to the individual on the ground, a second person inside one of the involved trucks was also reported to have sustained injuries, including back pain. Emergency crews classified the injuries as serious enough to warrant immediate medical transport. Ambulances were dispatched Code Two, indicating a non-life-threatening but urgent medical situation.
The cause of the crash has not yet been released, but authorities will likely examine speed, visibility, and possible mechanical failures as contributing factors. The intersection remained partially blocked while crews stabilized the injured and cleared the wreckage.
Our thoughts are with the individuals injured in this crash, and we hope for a full recovery for all involved.
Vehicle Collisions and Injury Risk in Arizona Intersections
The intersection of Lindsay Rd and E Williams Field Rd in Gilbert serves as a busy conduit for evening and commuter traffic. With wide lanes, high speeds, and limited visibility after dark, it presents notable risks—particularly when driver distraction or error occurs. Tuesday night’s crash highlights how quickly such intersections can become scenes of serious injury, especially in multi-vehicle collisions.
In this incident, one of the victims was found lying on the ground and unable to move—an alarming but not uncommon result of high-impact crashes. Even without confirmed ejection, severe musculoskeletal trauma, spinal injury, or neurological impairment can prevent a person from moving immediately after a collision. Fast intervention is crucial in such cases to avoid further harm.
Back injuries, like the one reported by the truck occupant, also require urgent evaluation. Without prompt treatment, internal injuries and spinal trauma can worsen significantly. Gilbert’s emergency medical teams responded quickly, and their work helped ensure both patients received timely care.
Arizona’s urban centers, including areas like Gilbert, continue to face challenges related to intersection safety. High-speed corridors intersecting residential and commercial zones demand constant caution. Local law enforcement and fire agencies consistently stress the importance of speed regulation, signal compliance, and defensive driving to reduce accident frequency.
For crash victims, the road to recovery may involve much more than physical healing. Pain management, rehabilitation, and emotional recovery all play roles, as do navigating insurance claims and understanding legal rights.
