A drunk ambulance driver caused a crash in the northern Bulgarian town of Lovech, but luckily no one was injured in the incident, police reported.
The man who drove the ambulance into the opposite lane, thus hitting a car, was steering with blood alcohol level of 3,24 promiles, tests showed. In the time of the crash a patient was in the ambulance but he was not injured.
"If blood tests prove that our driver was drunk, he would have to pay for the damage caused to the ambulance car," head of the Lovech emergency unit, Dr Tatyana Doncheva said.
