Warren and Underwood, who in 2016 attacked the paramedics in Reservoir after a day-long binge on bourbon, champagne and cannabis, were last year jailed by a magistrate for eight months and four months respectively.

But the pair immediately appealed against their sentences, and on Tuesday County Court judge Barbara Cotterell upheld the challenges and quashed the prison terms.

Mr Judd, who has been a paramedic for 40 years, is yet to return to work after several bouts of surgery to mend serious foot fractures he suffered when he was repeatedly kicked as he and Ms Bentley were treating a drug-affected man, and Underwood and Warren took exception to being asked to step back.

Unreal.

I can comfortably say that this wouldn’t happen where I work.
