Taxi Driver Moves Ambulance
August 21, 2010By Sarah Richardson

A 64-year-old English man was released on bail last week after moving an emergency vehicle that was in his way.


While preparing to take a severly ill one-month old baby to the hospital in South East England, paramedics realized that their emergency vehicle had vanished.


A Sussex police spokesman says the man voluntarily came into the station and handed himself in of his own accord and was arrested on suspicion of taking a vehicle without consent.


"The ambulance crew reported at 12.40 a.m. that a taxi driver had objected to the road being temporarily obstructed, so he had just got into their ambulance and driven it a short distance up the road, before driving away in his own taxi," said the police spokesman.


The taxi driver was bailed without charge until August 31, but the incident is pending further inquiries.
