Medic responds to hit-and-run, victim turns out to be his wife

He responded to a call for woman who was knocked off her bike by a van

PORTSMOUTH, England — Injured Jayne Fairbrother was given first aid by her paramedic husband after she was knocked off her bike in a hit-and-run crash.

Nurse Jayne was cycling to work when a van tried to overtake but pushed her into the kerb, making her fly over the handlebars of her bike and land face-first on the ground.

An off-duty police officer and two nurses rushed to help and called 999 – with Jayne’s paramedic husband Mick arriving in an ambulance. Jayne, 48, said: ‘I’ve gone flying over the handlebars, my left knee hit the pavement and the worst thing is I can remember my face hitting the floor.”
