UNITED STATES NEWS
** A Texas ambulance crew from Houston narrowly escaped injury today after a gunman hijacked their ambulance around 3 a.m. That is the word from the News & Observer (Mike Stunson/July 23) which said the suspect first ran the EMS unit off the road, firing at the vehicle. He then made off with the rig with both a patient and attending medic inside. Police eventually detained the ambulance after tracking it via GPS. A spokesman for law enforcement said the man was under the influence of an unknown substance. Charges have not yet been laid. No one was injured in the incident.
