An 18-year-old man is facing charges after allegedly assaulting a NSW Ambulance Paramedic in New Lambton last night.<\/p>\n
About 9.30pm (Monday 26 January 2015), police were called to a loud party on Bridges Road.<\/p>\n
The man was allegedly observed to be well-affected by alcohol or drugs and became aggressive and abusive towards police.<\/p>\n
Due to his level of intoxication and behaviour he was arrested and an ambulance was called to convey the man to hospital for assessment.<\/p>\n
Police will allege that whilst in the ambulance, the man remained violent and abusive and spat on a female Paramedic as she was trying to treat him.<\/p>\n
The driver of the ambulance immediately stopped and the escorting police were forced to restrain the man again, before he was taken to hospital.<\/p>\n
The NSW Ambulance Paramedics were not injured during the incident.<\/p>\n
Due to his level of intoxication, the man will be issued with a future court attendance notice for offensive behaviour, common assault and assaulting an ambulance officer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
