Hatzoloh member arrested:

N.Y. Newsday:

A member of a volunteer ambulance corps was taken into custody by police Monday night after he interfered with a response to an emotionally disturbed elderly woman in a Lower East Side apartment, a police source said...
Police officers, who were also called to the scene along with paramedics from the fire department, told the members of the ambulance corps that they were handling the situation.
At that point, one of the members of the Hatzolah ambulance became "extremely indignant" and demanded to attend to the patient, a police source said.
During the confrontation, one of the fire-department paramedics on the scene called and reported that "Hatzolah is giving the unit a problem about transport."Despite repeated requests to leave, the Hatzolah member allegedly refused. At one point, he placed his foot in the door, preventing officers from closing it, according to the police source.
The Hatzolah member, whose name was not released, was taken into custody and moved to the nearby Seventh Precinct. Initially, it appeared the man was going to face charges of disorderly conduct, but after several hours of questioning, no charges or summonses were issued. The matter remained under investigation...

Police and Fire units are always clashing so this too is inevitable. Coordination and dialogue is the key.
