Paramedics reported that [officer] Perrotta declined treatment in the ambulance.
“I am fine, I just needed to get out of here,” she said, according to the report.
The report by Eliot Prescott, Connecticut’s inspector general, did not say whether the delay in waiting for another ambulance contributed to [victim] Best’s death.
Perrotta currently is out on administrative leave due to an unrelated matter...
He might have died even taking that first ambulance, but she certainly wouldn't have. What a disgrace.
The first ambulance called to take Best to the hospital arrived at the scene ... However, at the urging of other officers, that ambulance was used to take away a white police officer ... who had been involved in the foot chase, the report said.
That sure sounds like a deliberate stratagem.
You don't want to get caught on your body cam talking about the shooting with others. It's sop to get these officers back to home base where the union lawyers get first dibs to organize thoughts and statements. 3 days later the report gets written and what do you know magic phrases like "feared for my life" get sprinkled in.
Absolute scum
Ambulance DDOS.
shot in the back last year as he fled from officers
found that the shooting was justified because Best had a gun in his hand
