The ambulance was heading to the hospital with a patient so another rescue unit had to finish transporting the patient. The driver of the truck was taken to the hospital with minor injuries. Medics and an intern were also taken to the hospital for precaution, but they are expected to be in good conditions.

Charleston Police say an officer in nearby Goose Creek spotted the stolen SUV minutes after it was taken around 10 a.m. Sunday and started chasing it. Police say the driver didn't stop for several miles until running over spiked sticks placed in the road by Charleston officers.

Authorities say no one was injured, and the driver was taken into custody. The driver's name or any possible charges have not been released.

At the same time, Riverview Fire and Rescue crews were dealing with an emergency of their own.  One of their fire trucks slid down an icy decline, smashing into a Northeast fire truck.  The unintended crash caused some damage but no one was hurt.  

Officials tell FOX 2 that the cause of the fire is still under investigation. As for the smashed trucks, those are still operable.
