I hope the paramedic will be okay.
Talk about under-appreciated folks these guys are it. My hat's off to them.
Paramedic assaulted responding to call
Little information was available on what led a man to allegedly assault a paramedic who was trying to help him Monday evening.
EMS called police to the Sierra Apartments in the 6100 block of Whitby around 5:30 p.m. for help after the paramedic was assaulted by a man who was the intended recipient of EMS care, said San Antonio Police Sgt. David Pruitt. It appeared that the man — who was allegedly assaulted during an earlier altercation — possibly pushed or hit the paramedic after the team arrived.
No information was available on the condition of either men. Both were taken to a hospital, Pruitt said.
