A paramedic has died after being stabbed by a patient in the back of an ambulance, according to officials.

Early Sunday morning, firefighter Graham Hoffman, 29, was in the back of an ambulance transporting a patient to the hospital in Kansas City, Missouri, when he was stabbed in the chest, piercing his heart, according to a press release published on the city's website.

The officer said he attempted to detain Bossell, who allegedly resisted, grabbed his handcuffs, and tried multiple times to reach for a knife attached to his vest.

While attempting to call for help on his police radio, the officer said that Bossell bit his left forearm and refused to let go.

"Due to the violent nature of the incident, Bossell should be considered a danger to the public," the last line of the probable cause for that incident reads.

Online court records state she had posted bond on Friday, April 25.

"We filed charges against the defendant last week, requested a warrant on two felony charges — the D felony of assaulting a law enforcement officer and the E felony of resisting arrest — and the judge honored our request for a warrant, issued a warrant, and set bond at $10,000 on that previous case," Thompson said.

if this person, who was identified as a danger to the public weeks earlier, had still been in jail, this young paramedic would still be alive...
 
didn't go through the story, but did she have a knife or was it the medics? really hope she just wasn't patted down.
