BIRMINGHAM, England — A group vile of thugs smashed an ambulance windscreen with a brick while paramedics treated a patient.

The emergency vehicle was vandalized while attending a person suffering from severe abdominal pain who required hospital treatment. When the crew returned to their vehicle around 4 a.m. on Friday they discovered the ambulance had been “senselessly” attacked.

Fortunately neither the patient nor crew were hurt, but a back-up vehicle had to be called to the scene in the Hodge Hill area of Birmingham, West Midslands.
