My reliable patient just informed me that right outside my building, just now in Center City Philly, there was an ambulance parked loading a patient who was on a stretcher. There was a guy pulling out from the space in front and he got jammed in so he had to go back-and-forth a bunch of times, pulled out, opened his window, took something sharp and punctured the tire of the ambulance and drove off like a bat out of hell. Thank God two people, including my patients husband, got his license number and called it right in to the police.
I hope and pray that the person being loaded in does not die because theyre unable to get him to the hospital because of a flat tire.
How fucking crazy ARE some people????

Sad. Completely crazy. I would suspect that driver faces serious charges beyond mere vandalism
