JAMESTOWN, N.D. — Two Jamestown, N.D., ambulance personnel and an elderly male patient were injured Monday afternoon when the ambulance they were in rolled over five miles west of Fargo.

The driver lost control after crossing an icy bridge, said Sgt. Troy Hischer. The ambulance, headed east on Interstate 94, did a complete roll through the median and landed on its wheels in the westbound lane of I-94. The accident was reported at 2:39 p.m.

The elderly male remained in the gurney when the ambulance turned over, but he did suffer a head injury from being struck with debris, Hischer said. It’s unknown why he was being transported to Fargo.
