The confrontation came to a stop at 5:30 a.m. in downtown Los Angeles near Aliso and Los Angeles streets.

The woman was seen struggling against firefighters before she was taken into custody, according to Fox11.

The California Highway Patrol also responded to the scene.

A fire department commander at the scene told Fox the ambulance was making a routine transport when it came upon a vehicle being driven erratically.

As the ambulance driver attempted to get past the PT Cruiser the suspect was driving, she apparently intentionally struck the rescue vehicle.
