EMT Pulled over for Failing to Yield

The video depicted above involves a confrontation between Oklahoma State Troopers and an EMT. The EMT allegedly did not yield on the way to a hospital to drop off a mother and son. Police pulled over the ambulance and claimed the EMT was resisting arrest. The officers then proceeded to shove the paramedic against the ambulance before deciding to let him go. Oklahoma State Troopers met the EMT at the hospital and made the decision not to arrest him. According to CNN.com the EMT could press charges against the officers for assault and criminal misconduct. On the other side police say the EMT was resisting arrest. Beauchamp Law Office knows far to well the severity of all the charges listed above. Many of these charges in Arizona will result in mandatory jail time and hefty fines. Here at Beauchamp Law Office, P.C. wants to know what you think. If you are from the areas of Gilbert, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Phoenix, Ahwatukee or Buckeye we want to know what your thoughts are. Should the EMT have been pulled over for failing to yield? Should the EMT press charges against the officers involved? Who is wrong in this situation?
