ST. LOUIS — One EMS provider and three civilians were injured in an ambulance crash Sunday night.
The ambulance was crossing an intersection with its lights and sirens activated when another vehicle failed to yield, colliding with the ambulance, reported FOX2. All four were transported to the hospital with minor injuries.
“It was clear that the ambulance had lights and sirens going and there’s a vehicle coming through the intersection and he hit him,” Bernie Squitieri, whose business surveillance cameras recorded the crash, said. “The car went on and the ambulance went right into our property.”
The driver of the vehicle told police they did not hear or see the ambulance approaching.
“We have damages to approximately nine vehicles, we have a fence that’s torn out, one of the light poles is damaged, and a lot of cars are beyond fixing,” Squitieri said.
