A man moved an ambulance, while staff were treating a patient, in order to free up a parking space for himself.
The incident took place in Malt Court, Pelican Lane in Newbury on 29 December.
While ambulance staff were treating the patient in the rear of the ambulance, he got into the cab of the vehicle, removed the handbrake and moved the ambulance.
He then drove his vehicle into a car park space which the ambulance had been blocking.
The offender is described as a white man, aged about 50 and is about 5ft10ins with a slim build.
He was driving a red Mini Cooper with a registration plate starting RJ60.
Quote MessageThere was no communication between the offender and the ambulance crew prior to the ambulance being moved. The offender moved the ambulance in order to free up a parking space for himself, without considering if anyone was receiving treatment at the time. His actions could have had very serious consequences for the patient, who was receiving emergency care."
