THUNDER BAY – Superior North Association Of Professional Paramedics report that “Tonight while attending to a single vehicle rollover on HWY 102 an ambulance was struck by a passing transport. Five emergency personnel are being assessed for what appear to be minor physical injuries”.

Also, we want to make it abundantly clear that when an emergency vehicle is pulled over or sitting anywhere on the roadway with emergency systems activated it is the law to slow down and pull over.
Our people want to go home at the end of their shift, please do your part to make sure they do.
