There is a known problematic street up the road from where i live where gangs and druggies deal in a lane behind the street where there is no street lighting and just garages and the druggies dial 999 and request ambulances and they jump the paramedics for the drugs in the back of the ambulance and as the law stands Paramedics HAVE to answer the calls.
