Ambulance driver faces impaired driving charge - West Virginia

Nov 5, 2007 - 8:12:45 AM

A West Virginia ambulance driver faces an impaired driving charge

after running two red lights with a patient in the back. The lights

and sirens of the ambulance weren't on, tipping off a police officer

something was wrong. The driver, who was transporting an elderly

patient from a hospital to a nursing home, failed a field sobriety

test and was blood-tested for drugs before going to jail on a charge

of driving under the influence of a controlled substance. Nobody was

injured, and another ambulance picked up the elderly patient, police

said

Ambulance Crash Log

Drunken ambulance driver killed 2 in car crash - Pennsylvania

Nov 5, 2007 - 10:33:39 AM

A 22-year-old ambulance driver drank before her shift and was

impaired when she collided with a car in Marshall, killing two men

instantly, Allegheny County District Attorney A. Zappala Jr.

said today.

Shanea Leigh Climo, 22, of City, is charged with two counts of

homicide by vehicle and involuntary manslaughter, driving under the

influence and several traffic offenses in the Sept. 23 collision at

Highway and Brush Creek Road. She was arrested this morning,

arraigned and released on her own recognizance, authorities said.

Police said an on-board camera system in the ambulance helped them

decide to file charges. The camera allegedly shows the face of the

driver, Shanea Climo.

Zappala said Climo was traveling south on Route 19, transporting a

patient with a do-not-resuscitate order to UPMC Passavant, when she

ran a red light and hit a Chevrolet Cavalier driven by Stitt.

Stitt and a passenger, Bacon, were killed.

The patient later died, but his death was not believed to be related

to the crash, Zappala said.
