Three people are hospitalised in Paphos after a private car on Thursday collided with an ambulance that was on duty at the time and had its sirens and emergency lights on.
The private car was driven by a 70-year-old man who tried to come out from the parking area of a confectionery and enter the city’s Anavargos Avenue where the ambulance was passing by at the time.
Behind the wheel of the ambulance was a 37-year-old man with a 32-year-old nurse as his co-passenger.
The Fire Brigade was called in at the scene of the accident to assist with efforts to free the 70-year-old man who was stuck inside the crashed vehicle.
