Federal officers stalled and threatened a Portland ambulance crew taking an injured protester from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility to a hospital on Oct. 5, Willamette Week reported Monday.

American Medical Response employees made those claims in internal incident reports, Willamette Week wrote. The documents detail a heated exchange at the South Portland building, with one federal agent threatening to “shoot and arrest” one of the medics, the medic wrote in a report obtained by Willamette Week.

A representative for the union representing the ambulance crew confirmed the allegations to The Oregonian/OregonLive.

    No no. You must have misread that. You see right under the commandment “four legs good, two legs better”? It says “medical assist all sides deemed good”. It was a simple oversight.
