A woman staying at a homeless shelter in New Orleans has been charged with kidnapping, after allegedly getting behind the wheel of a stalled ambulance while an EMS crew were inside, tending to a patient.
Law enforcement responded to a medical call at Ozanam Inn, a homeless shelter, around 7 p.m. on Tuesday. While medics were treating a man inside an ambulance, Valerie Barron, who was staying at the shelter, allegedly jumped into the driver's seat and took off on a three-mile excursion that ended when another EMS crew stopped the vehicle and pulled out the driver, WDSU reported.
