MARYLAND HEIGHTS, Mo. — Firefighters in suburban St. Louis gave up on using an ambulance after roads became dangerously icy and instead used a stretcher to walk a patient about a mile to a hospital. KSDK-TV reports that Maryland Heights Firefighter Shaylor Taetz rushed to Interstate 270 with his partner Sunday after a bus spun around on the freeway. Taetz says they’d almost reached the bus when their ambulance slid on the ice and hit a guardrail. But the firefighters got to the bus, and the driver was the only person on board.
