A paramedic who was busy saving a girl's life was given an abusive note by a resident who couldn't access their home.

North East Ambulance Service worker Chris James Nixon received a 999 call on Friday and rushed to the scene to help save the young girl in danger.

While he was attending to the crisis, a resident left an angry message for him on his ambulance windscreen, calling him "appalling".

The letter said: "I have toke pictures off you leaving ambulance in middle off road, when there is no need for. See pic. You behaviour is appealing and you should be kept responsible for you actions as 'professional driver'. Resident who can't get to his house. [sic]"

Chris posted the note to his Facebook, writing: "While working hard to save a young girl's life in the back of the ambulance... received this from a fan who left it on our windscreen!"

Facebook users were outraged by the note, writing a series of comments trashing the selfish homeowner and praising the paramedic for his quick response.

One wrote: "So if their relative was gravely ill, they'd expect you to drive around the block to look for a parking space, potentially park a distance away from the patient, and delay their emergency, life-saving treatment? Should have left their name so we can do just that if the need ever arises."

Another fumed: "So when they call for an ambulance, make sure you park legally, maybe pay and display. All the while they're bleeding to death."

Perhaps our favourite comment read: "The author could have made good use of their waiting time to research how to use the English language. Cretin...on several levels."

Chris responded to the comments, saying that the parking was absolutely necessary as it was a "bad trauma job" and that "HART [Hazardous Area Response Team] was in the back with me."

This certainly takes the meaning of nasty neighbours to a whole new level...
