Police say EMTs from Richmond University Medical Center were responding to disorderly person report outside of the Funky Monkey bar. The suspect, 37-year-old Thomas McCauley, was apprehended and was set to be transported to a medical center.
While in the ambulance, McCauley allegedly shot one round inside the ambulance and struck a 25-year-old EMT worker in the shoulder.
McCauley then ran out of the ambulance and was caught by retired NYPD detective and Department of Sanitation lieutenant.
Police recovered a 38-caliber revolver at the scene. Charges for McCauley are pending.
