Two doctors and a paramedic were lucky to escape unscathed after a brick was thrown at their car while responding to reports of an assault.
The rapid response road unit from Great North Air Ambulance Service (GNAAS) were on hand to assess a patient at Trimdon railway station, Durham, on November 5, who was taken to hospital by another ambulance service for further treatment, before they came under attack.
The GNAAS unit were heading back to base at roughly 7.40pm when a brick was thrown at the window of their response car - though the door took the brunt of the heavy impact, protecting the doctor sat in the passenger seat.
