Nov. 06--Two Chicago Fire Department personnel were hospitalized early Thursday after a man bit one of them and injured the other in the Loop, officials said.
The incident happened about 2 a.m. in the 200 block of West Jackson Boulevard, said Fire Department spokesman Chief Juan Hernandez.
Police said the fire personnel were assisting a man at that location, and when they tried to put him on a stretcher, the man bit a female paramedic on the left calf. A firefighter was also injured, although details were not immediately available on that injury, police said.
The two responders were taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital with minor injuries, Hernandez said.
