LEWISVILLE - Criminals are now preying on paramedics. News 8 has learned thieves have been breaking into ambulances right outside the doors of North Texas emergency rooms.
Seconds matter for paramedics. They have to act quickly to save lives, which is hard to do if someone has stolen critical equipment or medications from their ambulance.
“If you call us about your child, you call us about your grandmothers, we want to be prepared, and it does us absolutely no good for us to turn around and something to be missing," said Lewisville Fire Chief Richard Lasky.
Someone is walking right up to emergency rooms where ambulances are parked and taking what they can.
