PINAL COUNTY, AZ – According to CBS 5, the Arizona Department of Public Safety is investigating a deadly wreck involving an ambulance, which happened on I-10 near AZ 387 on Sunday.
A male was driving an American Medical Response ambulance and was traveling east on I-10 with a female passenger when he strayed off the road, causing the vehicle to roll over. The ambulance, which was not transporting a patient at the time, ultimately landed on its wheels.
