It does sound pretty callous behaviour..
// The control centre in Inverness contacted Mr McLaughlin and asked him to attend. Miss Keith, 43, said: "I heard the air ambulance going over the top of my house. I noticed an ambulance at Mandy's house at the bottom of the road.
"I phoned the station. I said: 'Owen what's going on? There's an air ambulance at the bottom of my road'.
"His exact words were 'Shirley, you're not going to like what I'm about to say. They shouted me on my break but I refused to go." She added: "I was totally numb with disbelief, I just hung up the phone.
"We may not have been able to make a difference to Mandy but we were only two minutes away from her and he's got all the equipment, including a defibrillator, in the back of the ambulance.
"When Mandy really needed help he let her down. That is so wrong."
An ironic twist to the saga is that Miss Mathieson's late grandfather, Charlie Skene, was the village's ambulance driver in the past and had successfully campaigned for a dedicated vehicle for the area. //

Unprofessional. I know how I would feel if the deceased was a friend of mine. I would not be too bothered if he was sacked.
