A Medic working for West Midlands Ambulance Service was abused by a motorist before being spat at as they made their way to an emergency call on Sunday morning.

Medic Karl Williams said:

‘On way to a job today a man waved us down because I had drifted across lanes. 

‘He proceeded to verbally abuse and threaten us as he pulled alongside. Then to finish off he spat directly through the window of the cab at us!!

‘@WMPContact @WMPolice are now dealing’. 

Many people commented on the tweet stating how disgusted they were with what had happened.

@DonnaDim71 said:

‘They walk amongst us…and have no shame or moral compass’.

@Nick_Bayliss said:

‘Hope you’re ok.

‘We issue our drivers with ‘spit kits’. Samples are taken at the time, passed to WMP where it is checked against the DNA database, prosecution follows if the offender is on the database.

‘If no trace, sample remains on file for future prosecution.’

Whilst @FatherJones1 tweeted:

‘Close family member is a paramedic.

‘Was working the other day with a colleague different from usual shift buddy.

‘Colleague had vomit spat into her face by patient, didn’t report it, which really should have been done. Disgusting behaviour needs reaction really’

On way to a job today a man waved us down because I drifted across lanes.

He proceeded to verbally abuse and threaten us as he pulled along side. Then to finish off he spat directly through the window of the cab at us!!

@WMPContact @WMPolice are now dealing!

😡😡😡😡

West Midlands Police Contact tweeted back to their colleagues in green and said:

Yet again I am left speechless at such behaviour towards our friends in Green.

We take a very, very dim view of such abuse towards any @OFFICIALWMAS crew & always treat such incidents as a High Priority for response.

Any offenders will spend a night with us, free of charge. https://t.co/i84i7u1CXN

Before you go...

WE NEED YOUR HELP.Here at Emergency Services News, we aim to tell you stories that the mainstream media are not interested in reporting. Whilst the MSM love to berate and ridicule the emergency services, who is there to report on the realities of serving on the front line?

Emergency Services News is currently a loss-making entity. But our team of volunteers, all former emergency services personnel, do not do it for the money.

We do it because we are sick and tired of the mainstream media constantly trying to undermine the men and women who put their lives on the line to keep you and your family safe.

How many MSM journalists who speak ill of the emergency services have actually dared to don the uniform and risk their own lives to save the life of a complete stranger? If you would like to help back our mission of reporting on fact-based news, then please consider helping to support us financially.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
