A Virginia Beach woman who crashed into an emergency medical services vehicle has been charged with reckless driving. The 46 year old woman, Josephine Pascarella, was traveling east on Laskin Road in the afternoon when she crashed her minivan into the side of the EMS vehicle.
The EMS vehicle (not one that transports patients) was headed south on First Colonial Road when the accident happened. Pascarella apparently did not see the lights of the EMS vehicle, which were on, as well as the emergency sirens. The auto accident happened at the intersection of Laskin and Colonial roads.
Pascarella was taken to a local hospital, but according to police she was not injured in the accident. A paramedic student traveling in the back of the EMS vehicle had to be cut out by emergency responders, and was also taken to the hospital. The student’s injuries were serious, but were not believed to be life-threatening.
The medic who was driving the EMS vehicle had to be taken to the hospital as well after the crash, with non-life threatening injuries. The medic was released later that evening.
The accident is still under investigation. As a result of the t-bone collision, Pascarella was charged with reckless driving.
