DC Firefighters Accused of Stopping for Fast Food During Emergency Response

Two D.C. firefighter-EMS providers are being investigated for delaying their arrival at an ALS call because they stopped to pick up their order at Chick-fil-A. The Ambulance 3 crewmembers said they were hungry and fatigued and had put in their order before the call came. The patient was transported to a hospital, and both crew members of Ambulance 3 have been placed in a no patient contact status while the investigation is ongoing.
