NEW LONDON, Conn. — New London police say they arrested a man after he got into an ambulance and drove it a few feet because it was partially blocking his car.

John Brosnan, 48, was charged Thursday with driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, operating a vehicle under a suspended license, interfering with police and taking a vehicle without the owner’s permission, according to police.

Authorities said the ambulance was parked for an emergency medical call when it partially blocked Brosnan’s vehicle, which was illegally parked in a loading zone.

Witnesses told police Brosnan got into the ambulance and moved it. The ambulance was not damaged.
