[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who actually called the ambulance? Has that been mentioned?[/quote]

I thought one of the police officers did, initially, and then either they or dispatch escalated it (someone correct me if I'm wrong...).[/quote]

According to released Lane/Keung body cam, shortly after Thao and Chauvin arrive on scene and they get on the ground, Lane calls code 2 for a mouth injury.

Link to transcript (page 14 of 25): https://www.mncourts.gov/mncourtsgov/media/High-Profile-Cases/27-CR-20-12951-TKL/Exhibit207072020.pdf

Code 2 is a standard medical call, ambulance will use standard driving conditions.

It was upgraded to code 3 about a minute and a half later according to the paramedic testimony. Code 3 is lights and sirens, get here as fast as you can.

The initial code 3 dispatch request wasn’t caught on this body cam or transcript, but according to Thao in his BCA interview, he upgraded it to code 3. The transcript does show that Thao asked the other officers about EMS and hears it was dispatched code 2. On page 18 of the transcript there’s some communication between the dispatch and Lane confirming an ambulance is coming code 3.
