OUR CARING OFFICIALS

It is good to read a nice heartwarming story of how a public servant went out of his/her way to help someone......

Unfortunately I couldn't find one and nearly exploded with rage when I read about the ba*&%$^d who slapped a parking ticket on a car when the couple inside pulled over to see to their baby daughter who was having difficulty breathing and needed an inhaler, ...... obviously just doing his job of course.......... I'm not normally violent but reckon I could be in that situation!!

'Callous' warden gives parents parking ticket after they pull over to help sick baby daughter


A couple were shocked to be issued a parking fine after pulling over to help their sick child.

Christine Ireland, 23, and partner Christopher Horton, 29, claim they had stopped the car to give their breathless baby daughter Caitlin an inhaler when a parking warden approached.

When they explained the emergency, he allegedly told them 'that's not my problem' and gave them a £70 fine.

The couple said they were driving through Hull, Yorkshire, on Tuesday after visiting their bank in the city centre when Caitlin started struggling to breathe.

She was born with a collapsed lung and pneumonia and has an undiagnosed breathing condition.

Miss Ireland, who is a full-time carer for her daughter, said: 'We were driving home when Caitlin's breathing became really heavy.

'We pulled over to the nearest safe place, which was a bus stop, to give her an inhaler.

'Then a parking warden knocked on our window. He told us we couldn't park there and started writing out a ticket.

She said the warden insisted they move on and even threatened to report them to the police if they didn't.

She said: 'He just kept saying "that child should be in a car seat" and that he was going to report us to the police.

'Caitlin was in a car seat, but I took her out as she always puts up a fight when you give her the medication.

'I told the warden she was a sick child with a condition, but he just said "you need to move off or I'll report you". I couldn't believe he still issued us with a ticket.
