EMT attacked while responding to call on Detroit's east side No description found
An EMT was attacked Tuesday night on Detroit’s east side.
EMS technicians were bringing a patient out of a house on Chatsworth Street, when a family member became upset, grabbing a prep radio and throwing it through the window of the ambulance.
The EMT suffered a cut to his head and was taken to the hospital.
The incident comes on the heels of a vicious attack in October of 2015 where two Detroit EMTs suffered stab wounds to their faces and hands while treating a woman for an injured ankle.
