In fairness, we do not know the specifics of the situation. The emergency services *do* frequently deal with people who would attempt to kill and/or injure somebody and then hang around and attack the people who turn up to save the injured party (if possible).
Scared of the lights and Sirens? No. They almost seem excited by them.
Now you are right, it *is* the job of the emergency services to save lives, but *not* to put their own lives at risk.
