A woman has been arrested in connection with an offensive note left on an ambulance that told the driver to “move your van”.

The hand-written message was placed on an emergency vehicle in Tunstall, Stoke-on-Trent, angrily demanding that paramedics move on.

it read: “If this van is for anyone but Number 14 then you have no right to be parked here.

“I couldn’t give a s**t if the whole street collasped (sic). Now move your van from outside my house.”

West Midlands Ambulance Service paramedic mentor Katie Tudor posted a picture of the note on Twitter over the weekend, copying in Staffordshire Police’s main account.

She wrote: “So upset to be sent this by one of our crews this morning!

“Along with this note left on their ambulance, they received a load of verbal abuse!”

She later added: “They weren’t blocking the road, they were in a parking space… just obviously annoying someone that an ambo was outside their property.”

The paramedic, who is based in Stoke-on-Trent, then went on to ask: “Is there anything that can be done about this? It’s becoming a regular occurrence.”

Tweeters responded to offer praise to the emergency services in light of the note:

2/2 Sadly we have to ‘tolerate’ those in society who only ever think about themselves until such time when they need you/us. Then it’s a different story. Just know that 99.9% of the public really value and appreciate what you/we do. https://t.co/ydFmnznrS1 — Nick Adderley (@ACCNickAdderley) February 18, 2018

Dear ALL Emergency Services. If and when needed please feel to block my driveway, car or anything else for that matter.

If you want a brew..

the kettle is always on.

Need the loo?

No problem. Kind Regards, Just one of the majority of folk

The vast majority of us will let you block our driveway for an emergency, bring out tea and biscuits if you have time, or anything else you need help for! Not everyone has lost the plot thankfully! — Martin Baker (@ytfcbadger) February 18, 2018

One of my neighbours had called for an ambulance a few years ago but was unresponsive when they arrived. My attitude was to leg it round to the shed and grab a ladder to get through a window. Wasn’t needed in the end but you don’t just sit there and complain about the van! — Martin Baker (@ytfcbadger) February 18, 2018

My wife and I came home only to find paramedics, a fire truck & police outside the house, and in front of the driveway. After making sure our house was okay, I parked up the street & we walked back. No harm, no foul, AS THEY WERE DOING WHAT I PAY THEM FOR! — WindaWester (@WindaWester) February 18, 2018

Paramedic operational manager Mike Duggan also shared a picture of the note and said the emergency services were increasingly facing growing level of hostility.

He told Birmingham Live: “People seem to have no respect for the work we’re doing or the fact we’re helping someone.
