Oh yeah. The Daily News reports that two EMTs were responding to a 911 call on 14th Street and Avenue B last night around 9 ... when, unrelated to their call, EMT Bruce Fonseca and his partner "heard loud screams for help."
Per the News:
The duo ran to the source of blood-curdling screams and found two men in a fight — one of them armed with a very large knife.
Fonseca radioed for help while his partner took on the angry assailant.
The EMT was able to get the weapon away from the attacker while Fonseca subdued him.
The article doesn't mention what the two men were fighting about... or what the original 911 call was about...
