WATCH: Footage of drunken man attacking paramedics in Cork

Shocking footage has emerged of a drunken passer-by attacking members of Cork's ambulance service on Washington Street.

The crew, who were being filmed for TV3’s Paramedics, were attending to another man lying on the ground at the time who had become unresponsive and wouldn’t move.

Paramedics Denise Forde and Imelda O’Shea were first on the scene and immediately tried to get the man up off the ground. Gardaí were called and the man became violent, resulting in him being arrested.
