The ambulance should have never pulled over. Have dispatch let highway patrol know they are loaded and to meet at hospital.
Have supervisor or owner meet at hospital if possible.
That's what I would have thought. Regardless of what was going on with that EMT and the cops.

The "guys" (EMT's & LEO's) on the forum were saying ambulance has the right of way over a leo unless leo is responding to secure the scene. In this case the ambulance was NOT running code at the time. The leo had responded to a call from a fellow leo for help and then was "signal 9'ed" and turned around to go back after the ambulance.
If it's allowed, I will post links to the other forums so you can read the story for better info.

Not enough info to make a judgement call when not there.
With what info was provided, if at all possible, should have been handled better due to patient involved in transport.
Seriously Rutman, with all due respect ( I really mean that ), I don't think it really matters what happened leading up to the "attempted arrest". The most important FACT is that an emergency vehicle was stopped in an emergency situation, a person in distress in the back, and
instead of an escort to the hospital, this pitiful excuse for a public servant wants to have it out with the EMTs? People who approve of this behavior and defend the police in this instance are difficult for me to comprehend. Too much of it goes on because WE let it.
