A man has been arrested and charged after allegedly assaulting ambulance staff.
Paramedics were responding to a call in Bargoed in the early hours of Sunday, April 15, when the alleged incident took place.
Welsh Ambulance contacted Gwent Police who attended the scene on Hanbury Road and arrested a man.
The man, from the Penpedairheol area, was later charged with two counts of assault and two public order offences and released on bail to appear in court at a later date.
A spokesman for Gwent Police said: “At approximately 1.55am on Sunday 15th April, we received a report that a man was being verbally and physically aggressive towards paramedics on Hanbury Road in Bargoed.
“Officers attended and arrested a 24-year-old man from the Penpedairheol area.
“He has since been charged with two counts of assault and two public order offences and has been released on Police bail pending future court proceedings.”
