EMT: Jacko's Hit-n-Run Driver Caused Injuries

Posted Apr 23rd 2009 12:30PM by TMZ Staff

Michael JacksonWe just talked to the ambulance driver who was allegedly sideswiped by Michael Jackson's chauffeur yesterday -- and he says the ambulance wasn't the only thing banged up in the alleged hit-and-run.

Here's Jamin Mauro's side of the story: He and his partner were eating lunch in the ambulance, which was parked in an alleyway outside of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Jamin said a dark blue Escalade suddenly struck the driver's side door and ripped off the mirror.

Mauro claims his head struck the driver's side window and his partner's head and elbow were banged up as well. Jamin says they both have stiff necks and are going to the doctor today to get checked out.

After Jacko's driver allegedly hit the ambulance, Jamin says the guy quickly sped off, picked up MJ and fled the scene.

Although Jackson wasn't even in the Escalade at the time, his rep issued this statement: "He is doing fine. M.J. is okay it was not bad."

5. Boy oh boy, this guy never gets a break! Back when I was managing the Jackson Five, he always seemed to attract trouble, even when I hired that nice man to take care of him. We always had our hands full, but he turned out just fine I think.

14. At least Michael wasn't hurt....

It was prolly from the medicine they gave him... they always say you shouldn't drive right after getting certain medicine..

Like this one time, at band camp, counselor Jenny gave me this medicine and it made me sleepy and when I woke up my pants were all wet and unbunttoned.

15. Apparently there is only one required certification to be an EMT in Cali. You have to be a giant pussy.
