EMS In The News - Man Allegedly Shoots at Ambulance


"Falck medics who responded “to a call for a structure fire literally dodged a bullet,” Aurora Fire Rescue said in a statement."

In Aurora, Colorado, paramedics narrowly avoided injury when a man allegedly shot at their ambulance during a house fire response.

The incident occurred near South Chambers Road and East Quincy Avenue. The suspect ran from the burning house with a gun and fired at the arriving ambulance, hitting the windshield. Fortunately, none of the three paramedics were hurt.

Police apprehended the 34-year-old suspect using non-lethal rounds, and he faces charges of arson and attempted murder after his hospital release​.
