SAN BERNARDINO – Caught on camera, a female adult began harassing and yelling at emergency medical technicians with American Medical Response, who were actively working on a patient that had been stabbed in the head. The female was upset that the ambulance was blocking her car from leaving.
She demanded that the ambulance be moved, just for her. The woman can be seen and heard arguing with a San Bernardino Police Officer. The police officer informed the woman that she was to stay at the scene until the ambulance crew was done conducting their business.
In California, it is crime to delay an emergency medical technician.
CA PENAL CODE 148.
(a) (1) Every person who willfully resists, delays, or obstructs any public officer, peace officer, or an emergency medical technician, as defined in Division 2.5 (commencing with Section 1797) of the Health and Safety Code, in the discharge or attempt to discharge any duty of his or her office or employment, when no other punishment is prescribed, shall be punished by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000), or by imprisonment in a county jail not to exceed one year, or by both that fine and imprisonment.
