Cops: Man Took Ambulance for Joy Ride, Strands Patient, EMTs

YORK, Pa. — Nov 30, 2015, 9:39 AM ET 0 Shares

Emergency workers in Pennsylvania got an unpleasant surprise when they wheeled a patient out of a home to their ambulance, only to find it wasn't there.

Police in York tell the York Dispatch 21-year-old Leonard Eugene Smith took the vehicle for a joy ride Friday before ditching it. They say an in-vehicle camera captured his actions and a tracking device led them to the ambulance.

Jim Arvin, president and CEO of White Rose Ambulance, says the video shows Smith "having a good time" behind the wheel, adding he "seemed excited."

Smith is charged with felony theft and a misdemeanor count of recklessly endangering another person. He's jailed on $75,000 bail.

The patient, who was having breathing problems, got to the hospital without much delay after another ambulance was called.

A friend of mine was a bouncer at a bar....ambulance was called for a non-emergency type call, they left the ambulance in the middle of the only entry/exit...cars were stacking up on the road to get in and in the parkinglot to get out....bouncer moved ambulance 15 feet out of the way.

Paramedics flip out on him, call cops, he's arrested for grandtheft auto.

True story.

Years ago when I was a teen, a guy about cut his arm off going through a glass window,

We were very close to the fire department and after putting a belt on his arm to stop the bleeding we walked him over to it and we were knocking on the door loudly, but no one answered.

I kicked the door in and was about to load him up in the ambulance and drive him to the hospital myself when the police showed with his weapon drawn.

After quickly explaining to him that the guy was going to bleed to death if we did not get him to the hospital fast, the cop told me to release the pressure on the belt I was holding around his arm.

Blood started shooting everywhere, this dood was spraying.. the cop was all excited, close it up, close it up! he shouted.. :lol:

Anyways the real driver showed up and we took him over to the hospital where the first medic that looked at him started grumbling at me that a triniquit was the worse thing to ever do.. and told me to take it off, as I released the pressure again he started squirting.

Again, put it back... put it back! :lol:

They managed to fix him up, but the cut was deep to the bone and even after surgery's he never did get full use of the hand on that arm again.

Meanwhile, because of good intentions there were no charges or complaints for attempting to borrow an ambulance.

It's like they didn't even know the basics.

"Put it back, put it back." Lol.
