PITT MEADOWS, Canada — An air ambulance clipped a telephone line and was forced to make an emergency landing in a nearby field after its tail roter shredded the line.
A spectator at the scene captured the footage on camera and posted it to YouTube.
The air ambulance was picking up a patient who had fallen into a water-filled ditch while pruning trees. He was taken to hospital in a ground ambulance instead, according to Waypoint AirMed and Rescue Magazine.
