A 34-year-old paramedic with Mobile Life Support Services (MLSS), Brandon Selleck, has been arrested by New York State Police for pointing a handgun at the victim during a domestic dispute.
The Troopers say that on July 7, just before 1:00 am, Selleck was involved in a domestic dispute in Wappingers Falls, leading the other party to report it to police.
Several hours later, at 12:30 pm, Troopers arrested Selleck at work at the Mobile Life ambulance station in Buchanan. The paramedic was charged with felony Criminal Possession of a Weapon and the misdemeanors of Menacing with a Weapon and Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance. He was released on his own recognizance.
Selleck’s charge of possession of a controlled substance is because he had prescription amphetamines without a valid prescription. It is unclear if his behavior is related to undiagnoses mental health issues.
Other MLSS Paramedic Comments
Selleck’s coworkers are angered that Mobile Life allowed him to return to work the following day. “He pointed a gun during an argument. That’s frightening,” said a fellow MLSS paramedic. A second medic added “To make it worse, he supposedly had illegal amphetamines. If he is using drugs and is capable of pointing a pistol at another person, we don’t feel safe around him.” The coworkers asked to have their identities withheld for fear of retaliation by Selleck.
