Magistrate hearing case against two co-accused questioned why officers say ‘no ambulance was obstructed’
During that case, NSW police alleged the demonstration “not only caused serious disruption to peak-hour traffic” but also “prevented an ambulance responding to an emergency under lights and sirens as it was unable to navigate through the increased heavy traffic”.“This imposition to a critical emergency service has the potential to result in fatality,” the police alleged at the time.
Police prosecutor Ernest Chan told the court that the ambulance was “no longer pressed and hence it was removed from the agreed facts”.Reiss asked whether the fourth co-defendant, Jay Larbalestier, who last year received an intensive corrections order and $7,196 fine after spending more than 40 days under house arrest as per his bail conditions, had been informed of the change in the police position.
