Bond was set at $50,000 for a 27-year-old Chicago man accused of stealing an ambulance Saturday while two paramedics treated someone he apparently knew in the back. A Chicago Fire Department spokesman said Jimmy McCoy allegedly jumped into the ambulance and drove off with the emergency lights on. The paramedics radioed that their ambulance had been stolen with them inside. Prosecutors said at a hearing Sunday that McCoy seemed to think he was driving his diabetic friend to the hospital. McCoy only made it a few blocks before a fire truck blocked the road. Police surrounded the ambulance and McCoy was arrested.
