March 2019 has seen three incidents where youths throwing stones at emergency ambulances
AMBULANCES have been attacked three times last month.
North West Ambulance Service is appealing to youths to stop before someone is seriously hurt.
In one case a side window was shattered when a bottle was thrown, later stones were thrown at an ambulance carrying a sick child and on Wednesday stones were thrown, chipping the windscreen of an ambulance on its way to a patient in a life-threatening condition.
Director of operations, Ged Blezard comments: “I was absolutely lost for words when I heard of these incidents."
