Attacks on ambulances and ER's are becoming more and more common in Juarez and Mexico in general. I truly admire the medics that do their work down there. It must be an insane environment to work in.

Would not do it. Many are actually volunteer or extremely low paid.

In Russia this used to be a problem too.

I remember photos of ambulances going out stripped because they were being stopped and robbed. The hospital;s ion Moscow also had locking door on pt rooms due to men coming in and robbing/stealing everything. No idea how it is now.

Vis a vis Mexico, when people started using ambulancias for safe passage of all sorts of stuff, that pretty well used up any potential grace from narcos, no matter how small.

Sounds like they need to setup a sting. Post up ambulances with SWAT teams in them. Anyone attempting to break in is shot.
