[SIRENS]
Right now we're in route to a call for a gunshot wound
in the North part of our district.
And the notes are, this says it's a 35-year-old female shot
in the right leg.
[INAUDIBLE] for law enforcement.
MAN (ON RADIO): You can cancel [INAUDIBLE]
we're pretty close to [INAUDIBLE] for the first call
of the shooting.
Go ahead and cancel.
We'll continue since we're already on it.
WOMAN (ON RADIO): OK.
SCOTT MICHAELS: Yeah, continue in.
Just clearing up some radio traffic there.
Other notes say the patient was jumped
and they got shot in the right thigh.
Law enforcement's not on scene yet
to clear us in so we're going to shut down here in a minute
and stage a couple blocks out until we get on scene.
Was also en route but they're staging as well.
Some additional notes came up.
Patient was attacked by a couple of men.
They assaulted her and shot her in the thigh.
WOMAN (ON RADIO): [INAUDIBLE]
They realized the patient is transgender.
Someone picked up patient and dropped her off
at the RPs house.
222 copies the additional notes and the stage.
WOMAN (ON RADIO): I'm very happy.
SCOTT MICHAELS: Yeah, so apparently, like I said,
she was attacked by a couple of men
after they found out she was transgender.
And someone picked her up and took her to the house
that we're going to.
Should be coming up, right?
Next one?
Trenton?
You could probably go down here and flip around
so we're facing [INAUDIBLE].
[WHOOSH]
She got a [INAUDIBLE].
Here you guys go.
How old are you?
35.
What's your last name?
Hey, did you see the type of gun they had?
No, I didn't.
It looks really small.
Maybe a handgun probably though?
Yeah, it was a handgun.
Because they hit me with it in the head.
OK.
They hit you in the head too?
Yeah.
So there was a fight before?
No, they just jumped me because they thought I was--
Is that the eye?
Yeah.
Gotcha.
Did they knock you out?
Were you knocked unconscious?
No, not completely.
I was just dazed.
So you was dazed.
OK, so you remember the whole event?
You have blurred vision or dizziness or anything
right now? - --right now too.
I've have had since then.
OK, all right.
Hey, what was your name again?
That was my--
What's your name again?
Just stand and we have the gurney right behind you, OK?
So just stand up.
Just stand up straight.
Use this leg, OK?
All right.
Hold onto the rail.
There you go.
All right and then sit straight back down, OK?
All right.
I'm going to move your leg, OK?
All right, bring this leg up.
There you go.
When we get inside, we're going to be making sure there's
no other injuries, OK?
Got it?
Any drugs or alcohol use?
No.
No, OK.
You want a water right now just to get going?
Are you all right?
OK.
[WHOOSH]
Tries too much.
Impossible right now, isn't it?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
SCOTT MICHAELS: Oh, we got here.
We were waiting, we were staging a couple blocks out,
we were waiting for law enforcement
to come and secure the scene.
Make sure there were no dangers for us or the ambulance crew.
We got cleared in, came in.
Patient, as you can see, was obviously sitting there
already.
Sitting upright talking, alert and oriented.
Didn't seem to be in too much distress.
Got a little bit of a background of what had happened.
Apparently, the victim was assaulted somewhere else out
of the area, brought here, and dropped off.
Still didn't have all the facts.
Couldn't tell exactly what had happened.
Did have an obvious gunshot wound to the leg, very minimal
bleeding, another trauma note on her body,
all the vital signs seem to be stable, but just due
to the mechanism of being shot, I'm
going to have her transported over to one
of the local trauma centers so they can do
any further evaluation or any additional treatment they need
or any specialized surgery that will require.
I talked to the supervisor.
