I am always amazed and saddedned by this type of story...and by Firemen and Paramedics having bottles and rocks thrown at them ( reminiscent of stories told by Denis Smith and rememmbered from "the War Years" in NYC by people such as Retired Lt. John Kenny who volunteers at the NYC Fire Museum)
At the moment, Commissioner Nigro is trying to rebuild relationships between Firehouses and their communities ( in some places, such as Kips Bay in Manhattan, this is hardly a problem! But other areas...well, there is alienation to say the least in some cases and Firehouse crews take on names that imply they don't think much of the areas they are serving.) |
CHICAGO AMBULANCE STRUCK BY BULLET WHILE TRANSPORTING PT.
Monday, May 18, 2015 Somebody fired a gun into an ambulance while paramedics were treating a patient Sunday evening in the Englewood neighborhood, according to police and fire department officials. At 5:35 p.m., paramedics were sent to the 5600 block of South Bishop Street for a traffic crash. But when they got there, they found an ambulance with its driver's side front window shattered, said Will Knight, a spokesman for the Chicago Fire Department. “A large caliber slug was noted on the floor inside the cab,’’ Knight said in an emailed statement. The shooting happened as two paramedics inside the ambulance, which was not involved in a crash, were treating a person who suffered shortness of breath, Knight said. No one was shot, he said. Police are investigating the incident
