A CAPE GIRARDEAU, MISSOURI, AMBULANCE stopped at an emergency scene early Sunday morning was struck from behind by a pickup truck that immediately fled the scene.
The ambulance owned by the Cape County Private Ambulance firm had just pulled up to the location and had its emergency lights flashing when the gray pickup rear-ended it. The driver of the truck then backed up, pulled away and drove down a side street. The collision occurred just moments before the medics would have been at the rear unloading the cot.
