Democrat-Run Houston: Suspect Carjacks Ambulance at Gunpoint with Patient Inside
Breitbart ^ | 07/23/2021 | Awr Hawkins

Posted on 07/23/2021 9:11:36 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

A suspect carjacked an ambulance with a patient inside it around 3 a.m. Friday morning in Democrat-run Houston, Texas.

The Washington Examiner reports an EMT was also in the ambulance when it was stolen

KHOU-11 notes the carjacking occurred after a man fired shots at the ambulance, forcing the driver to stop. The man then climbed into the driver’s seat, taking control of the ambulance.

The EMT was in the back with the patient and suspected something was wrong “because they were no longer heading in the right direction.”

Police were able to track the ambulance via GPS and take the suspect into custody.

No need to look at the video another Amish boy terrorizing people.

At least he’s locked up now.

On the local news, it said an employee jumped in his car, and followed the stolen ambulance, and shot out a tire.

I would have tried for a fire truck instead. How cool would that be!

Possibly. All you really see in the video is the top/side of the left side of his head (he’s got a high and tight style haircut) and his right forearm and hand. Surrounded by officers and being attended to by a paramedic. You can see a stetescope/blood pressure cuff tube going from the paramedic to the criminal’s forearm, Everyone is standing at the back of a patrol car. Considering the lighting and location (Houston), could be also be a Hispanic.

Add the city of Houston to the Democrats-Destroy-Everything-They-Touch list.

Wow. The poor guy in the ambulance and the attending EMT are probably wondering what in the hell is going on out there.

At least the guy got in the radio with dispatch to update their location, that they’re going north on 610.

“Hello . . . I’m the guy driving the ambulance, trying to talk to somebody.”

I can’t seem to embed links anymore — has there been a change? I’m always last to know.

If you ever go to Houston
You better walk right
You better not stagger
You better not fight
Sheriff Benson will arrest you
He’ll carry you down
And if the jury finds you guilty
Penitentiary bound

When we would go to the projects, we needed police escort because crowds would gather and rifle through the ambulance looking for drugs.

“ At least he’s locked up now.”

In Harris County, he will likely be given a PR bond and let out before the PO-PO get done filling out the paperwork.

*** Wow. The poor guy in the ambulance and the attending EMT are probably wondering what in the hell is going on out there. ***

If the patient in the ambulance survives, he probably won’t be calling an ambulance again. I wouldn’t.
