Criminal investigation underway involving female paramedic Fire Station No. 52
A female paramedic student tells police she was attacked outside of a Westside fire station.  The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office has not located a suspect.
The woman told police she left Fire Station No. 52 on Collins Road at 12:45 a.m. Tuesday morning when someone attacked her, according to the incident report.
Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department spokesman Tom Francis says the victim is a paramedic student.
She suffered a puncture wound below her rib cage and multiple lacerations on her upper thighs.  She accuses her attacker of trying to sexually assault her.
"Upon learning the details of this incredibly reprehensible and despicable crime we were saddened and above all else angered," Francis said.
The woman says her attacker ran off, and she went to the fire station and banged on the door for help before passing out.  Police say she woke up, called 911, and firefighters quickly found her after the station went on alert.
"As we learn more information perhaps in the aftermath of this incident, take a look at some of the measures that take place as it relates to this particular program involving the training of paramedics," Francis said.
WOKV News is working to update this story.  We are looking to find out if the woman knew her attacker and which specific changes firefighters might consider implementing.
