Court Dox Reveal How KCFD Paramedic Suffered Bite During Attack

Narrative offers perspective on the life of a first responder . . . Check-it: 

Court documents stated he had been seen 10 times in the last 90 days by KCFD.

While en route, SUSPECT became increasingly concerned there was another person in the ambulance trying to kill him, per court documents.

His paranoia led him to unbuckle his seatbelt and stand up near 29th and Broadway, where he requested the paramedics call police.

When officers arrived, SUSPECT became “even more agitated and combative.”

Officers attempted to take SUSPECT into custody, but he resisted, saying he didn’t want to go to the hospital or jail. He also said someone was “trying to get him,” per court documents.

The struggle led to officers taking SUSPECT to the ground with the help of the paramedics.

During that time, one paramedic stated he felt a sharp pain in his lower back. The paramedic soon realized SUSPECT was biting him, and he “struck out at him," court documents stated.

The paramedic told detectives he was unsure if he made contact . . .

When the paramedic was evaluated at St. Luke’s Hospital, it was noted he sustained a large circular bite on the left side of his stomach, just above his waistline. Court documents stated the paramedic's skin was "clearly broken."

After SUSPECT bit the paramedic, he was placed into custody and transported to Truman Medical Center for his “initial complaints of hallucinations and paranoia," per court documents . . .
