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.
Threatening people who, in the possibly very near future, may be the only ones able to save your life? They really are clueless.
Look at it from ICE workers perspective. They want everybody who is not part of the white supremecist vision in a camp or dead and medics are actively undermining their goals.
