Cape Town – Health officials are concerned about the recent attacks on emergency services staff, and say they will not allow ambulance personnel to be at risk while they are trying to save the lives of others.
The Western Cape Health Department has told staff to leave “high risk areas” – where there has been gang activity – if they fear for their safety.
It has identified Delft, Elsies River, Manenberg, Mitchells Plain, Khayelitsha and Lavender Hill as high risk-areas.
In the most recent incident, on Sunday morning, emergency services staff were attending to a call in Rocklands when shots were fired and a bullet was lodged in the ambulance. No injuries were reported.
This was just one of several attacks on staff since June. Staff members were attacked in three separate incidents in Mitchells Plain last month, including an incident in which a team was robbed of personal belongings at gunpoint.

Two paramedics are in serious condition after being attacked early Tuesday morning and repeatedly stabbed while attempting to render aid to a Detroit woman.
WWJ-TV reported that the incident took place shortly after midnight when Alfredo Rojas and Kelly Adams were called to help a woman with an ankle injury. A man was said to have become “agitated” and attacked the duo. SOURCE
