Not the ambulance crew’s job? Saving lives is their #1 most important job. Don’t tell me people don’t tell the calltaker the door is unlocked but once the ambulance crew has arrived on scene they find it isn’t. Pretty sad we are assigning jobs here – John obviously team playing isn’t your strong point.

The Fire Deptartment did not force entry and used common sense to locate a key holder which the ambulance crew apparently failed to do. How many of them were terminated.

Bottom line.. CAN’T TEACH COMMON SENSE !!!!!

Apparently the door to the newish apartments was substantial enough they couldn’t just kick it in.
