Footage of a shooting that occurred on September 21st, and was only recently released, showed several gunmen firing at two paramedics as they drove through Jackson Park in Chicago.

The paramedics had to duck to avoid several gunshots while driving their ambulance.

“Sounded like a gun to me,” the paramedic in the passenger seat can be heard saying before both paramedics duck for cover as further shots are fired into the ambulance.

The dashcam video shows the footage of the drive-by occur. Two men hang out of their vehicle as they drive past the ambulance, firing at least 5 shots.  

The paramedics then saw a bystander who they believed had been shot.  They performed a U-turn proceeded to assist them.

As they arrived at the scene, they learned that the cyclist had fallen off their bike to avoid the gunfire and was unharmed.

“Our primary concern is crew safety, but the team put their safety aside and went to the aid of someone else,” MedEx Chief Operating Officer Michael Pieroni said in a statement. “While nobody was seriously injured in this incident, it illustrates the hazards EMS providers face daily.”

An investigation into the shooting is currently ongoing.

And what people need to understand is this is result of what the “Left” has been doing for 50 years – undermining morals. Think about the “if it feels good do it” routine the “Left” has been pushing for years.
