According to BMR, FDNY EMS units were on scene of a person in cardiac arrest near Eliot Avenue & 68th Street last night, when a white mini van struck the ambulance head on.
The driver, who was suspected to be intoxicated, attempted to run away with his passenger.
The ALS Unit & EMS units were able to hold the suspects at the scene.
The EMT sustained non life threatening injuries and was being evaluated at the scene and later transported to an area hospital.
The 2 suspects who were in the vehicle that attempted to run away was taken into police custody and transported to Elmhurst Hospital with non life threatening injuries as well.
NYPD Highway Patrol was requested to respond to the hospital to test the driver for possible intoxication.
Kudos to the 104th Pct for a quick response and the area EMS units responding to the aid of a fellow EMT.
