Ambulance carrying patient involved in crash

VICTORVILLE • An ambulance carrying a patient to a local hospital was involved in a traffic collision Wednesday afternoon on Palmdale and Mariposa roads.


The American Medical Response ambulance was traveling east on Palmdale Road when it was involved in the crash with a minivan, but San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Victorville station officials had not concluded their investigation and as of 4 p.m. Wednesday had not released who was at fault.


The patient inside the ambulance was taken by a different emergency vehicle to a local hospital, officials at the scene said. An AMR employee was also taken to a hospital as a precautionary measure.
