LINCOLN, Neb. — Two former members of the Lincoln Fire Department who are charged with drug crimes have had their paramedic certificates suspended.
Fire Chief Niles Ford says neither Mark Eberspacher nor John Massie works for the fire department, although he wouldn’t say whether they resigned or were fired.
The state Department of Health and Human Services suspended the men’s paramedic certificates.
The 54-year-old Eberspacher is charged with theft and possession of a controlled substance for allegedly stealing a dying woman’s painkillers.
The 28-year-old John Massie is charged with acquiring a controlled substance. He’s accused of stealing morphine from an ambulance.
