JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Action News Jax Investigates whether a Jacksonville firefighter received special treatment during a Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office investigation involving the report of a stolen ambulance.

According to body cam footage, the ambulance was taken by a firefighter who escaped from a hospital where she was being held under the Baker Act. It is primarily a three-day involuntary hold for people undergoing a mental health crisis. Action News Jax isn’t naming the firefighter to protect privacy due to their mental health condition.

I guess it's a good thing this lunatic didn't run over a kid on a bike in the stolen rescue vehicle while in her compromised mental state.

There’s a lot of things wrong with this story on many levels.

Who allowed her to get loose in the hospital?

Why wasn’t she arrested for stealing the rescue vehicle?

Is she getting a pass because she’s a minority female?

When you need to go on an emergency call RIGHT NOW, it's not the time to go back to the break room and look for the keys!

So which was it, a "she" or a "they"? It's tough keeping a handle on this gender nonsense.

She’s black, the people she ran away to are black and interestingly enough the brand new sheriff of Duval county is also black. Hmmm. 🤔

I don’t buy that.

True story:

The ONLY time in my entire life - including as a teen - when I didn’t have my keys on me while away from home - besides auto service - was when they were taken by an armed robber.

Since paramedic was never in my job description, I did a search. Interesting discussion here:
