A taxi driver was arrested after he got behind the wheel of an ambulance answering an emergency call and moved it to make way for his own vehicle, police have said.

Officers attended the incident after the ambulance crew reported their vehicle had been driven away from outside an address in Pevensey Road, Eastbourne, East Sussex, as they were preparing to take a one-month-old baby to hospital on Sunday.

A Sussex Police spokesman said: "They reported at 12.40am that a taxi driver had objected to the road being temporarily obstructed, so he had just got into their ambulance and drove it a short distance up the road, before driving away in his own taxi.

"The ambulance crew retrieved their vehicle and took the baby to hospital.

"The 64-year-old came to the police station of his own accord a short while later and was arrested on suspicion of taking a vehicle without consent, and obstructing an emergency worker contrary to the Emergency Workers (Obstruction) Act 2006."

He said the man was bailed until August 31 pending further inquiries.

i had a similar thing happen with me.. I was coming out of my local hospital (leighton nr Crewe) when i saw a private hire taxi driver going mad at a female paramedic, the knuckle dragging taxi driver had parked his cab right next to the entrance doors on the yellow markings, when an ambulance pulls up and parks outside and blocks him in, whilst the paramedic is helping the OAP out the back doors in a wheelchair, the prick is shouting and being really aggressive to the young paramedic, i carried on walking to my car in total shock and thought fuck this, turned around when went straight up to the prick and confronted him.
I wanted to deck the twat but tore a strip off the fucker instead, i saw his name on his id card round his neck and rang his firm whilst stood in front of him and told his gaffer what a complete prick he employed and what had happened, the fooker got called back to his base. I hope the dick got sacked.
