Department of Public Safety officials say an investigation is planned into a scuffle between Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers and a paramedic.
Capt. Chris West said Wednesday the incident will be the focus of an internal administrative review. West did not immediately identify the troopers involved.
Sunday's scuffle occurred on Highway 62 near Paden in Okfuskee County after troopers and first responders in a Creek Nation ambulance argued over a close call on the road.
A woman was being treated in the back of the ambulance for heat exhaustion at the time.
OHP says one of the paramedics assaulted the trooper. Video of the incident shows troopers attempting to subdue the unidentified paramedic.
The Okfuskee County prosecutors are reviewing the footage to see if criminal charges should be filed against the paramedic.
