News24 reports that a Pietermaritzburg paramedic was stabbed and assaulted while trying to assist the injured at a motor vehicle accident scene on Saturday night.
One of the occupants from one of the cars involved in the collision presented a knife and attacked one of the paramedics, who sustained wounds to his face and hands before a member of the public stepped in and disarmed the knife-wielding man. The suspect then ran across the road and returned with a brick and attempted to further assault the ER24 crew. One of the paramedics managed to disarm him.
