Fond du Lac woman injures herself to get an ambulance ride

Talk about it

FOND DU LAC - When a Fond du Lac police officer refused a 36-year old woman’s request for a ride home, she asked for an ambulance. When the cop said she’d have to be injured, she reportedly threw herself to the ground and said she’s hurt her knee.

Police were called by a man who said the suspect wouldn’t stop asking him for money. When officers arrived, she told them the man owed her $100 dollars. Police told her she’d have to take her complaint to court and she needed to leave the property.

Police did go ahead and call the ambulance for her, but it likely wasn’t what she expected. They say she was looking for a free ride, but she is going to have to pay for the ambulance taking her to an area hospital.
