OHP says before the home video was recording, the paramedic assaulted the state trooper.

Witness Diana Walkup says the paramedic never touched anyone until the patrolman grabbed his arm.

UNDATED - There are more details about a confrontation earlier this week between an Oklahoma Highway Patrol trooper and a paramedic in Okfuskee County. The incident was caught on tape as the trooper accuses the ambulance driver of not pulling over when the patrol car was trying pass him. What does the law say about who has the right of way?

It was Sunday along Highway 62 in Paden. Kenyada Davis is behind the cell phone camera. His mother was being transported by Muscogee Creek Nation EMS to a hospital in Prague.

In a statement obtained by The News On 6, paramedic Maurice White said the patrol car came within three feet of the ambulance with its lights on, eventually passing while telling the driver over the emergency radio: "You should consider checking you rearview mirrors."

cops r suck fuckers all around

[vclxrr]

I'm normally opposed to capital punishment, but the behavior of these three cops, in my opinion, is grounds for summary execution. They should have been arrested, and after due process, immediately shot in the head. - Unless there is cause for an officer to believe that an emergency vehicle driver is a wanted felon, you don't **** with EMTs while they're doing their duty. Help them get to the hospital first, THEN deal with legalities.

The people are soon going to stop letting cops get away with this crap. My prayers to the person inside the ambulance.
