The ambulance drove to Rotterdam that evening without a siren. The two drivers overtook the vehicle, swerved in front of the ambulance and slammed on the brakes. As a result, the driver of the ambulance was also forced to brake hard, according to the police. “The heart patient could clearly feel this and the nurse saw the patient’s heart rhythm and stress increase as a result.”
The paramedics called the police, who arrested the duo not much later. They stated that they were angry about a priority incident. Besides the fact that they have lost their driver’s license, the men have also been charged with dangerous driving behavior and threats and obstruction of emergency services.
The eighteen-year-olds must appear in court at a later date. “Eventually, the patient made it safely to the hospital for a check-up,” the police said.
