A woman who attacked four paramedics who had tended to her after she fell over and hit her head while in a drunken state has been fined.
Fiona Sanders, 39, who also kicked out at a police officer while being arrested, admitted five charges of assaulting emergency workers earlier this year.
She launched an angry tirade on paramedics who had tended to her on Saturday, February 15 after she fell over on Coventry Road and hit her head whilst drunk, BirminghamLive reports.
Then on the way to a hospital she became "loud and rowdy" in the back of the ambulance, kept taking her seatbelt off and then lashed out at a paramedic, Birmingham Magistrates Court heard previously.
Sanders had to be placed into a wheelchair upon arrival due to her intoxicated state but she kept "shouting" out in the waiting area before flailing her arms and legs as a number of medics tried to restrain her. Three of them were injured as a result.
Ultimately she was arrested but kicked out at an officer in the process.
Her sentencing had been significantly delayed by the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, but Sanders, from Sheldon, was called back to Birmingham Magistrates' Court earlier this month when she was handed a community order.
Sanders must carry out 15 days worth of rehabilitation activities. She was also fined £184 and told to pay £185 in courts costs as well as a victim surcharge of £95. .
In mitigation the court was told Sanders had consumed "four large glasses of wine" and had "very serious issues with alcohol".
She was also said to be apologetic for her actions.
Magistrates determined the nature of the sentence after Sanders had spoken to the probation service, which looked into the wider circumstances of the offences and her background.
