25-year-old paramedic Cassandra Shepard was jailed Sunday morning after passing out at the doorway of a bar on Broadway. When she woke up, officers observed multiple signs of intoxication and attempted to get Cassandra onto a gurney so medics could assist her. She then became belligerent and started yelling, “I’m a f*/king paramedic! Leave me alone; get off me!” She refused to get onto the gurney or obey any commands given to keep her safe. Cassandra began flailing around and would not sit still, becoming a danger to herself and other patrons, and was placed into custody.
