Buena Park, California (KABC) – A shirtless man was taken into custody after allegedly attacking three firefighters in Orange County in her fire engine.

The attack occurred on Thursday at 6.44 p.m. in the 5200 block of the Knott Avenue in Buena Park, according to the Orange County Fire Authority.

A paramedic firefighter car returned to the ward when a man who ran a bicycle stopped in front of the vehicle. At that time, the man opened the door to the vehicle, jumped in and began to attack the firefighters, said Chuck Fedak, head of the OCFA battalion.

The suspect could somehow lock himself up in the fire brigade, but the police could pull it out and subdue it on the floor. A spitting hood was placed on the man and it was invited to an ambulance.

Three firefighters were taken to a hospital with minor injuries, the authorities said.

The Buena Park police are responsible for the investigation.
