FDNY medical tech arrested for allegedly fondling patient

Accused EMT David Taranto escapes the media









An FDNY Emergency Medical Technician was busted yesterday after he fondled the breasts of an injured female patient while rushing her by ambulance to a Staten Island hospital, police sources said.

Perverted EMT David Taranto, 31, responded in an FDNY ambulance to a car accident that involved the 39-year-old victim at the intersection of West Cedarview Avenue and Kensico Street in Richmond Town around 3 p.m. on May 16, sources said.

The injured woman was loaded into the ambulance, which then took off, heading for Staten Island University Hospital North.

On the way, Taranto picked up a stethoscope to check her heart rate, but then shifted gears and grabbed her breast under her clothes, sources said.

The creep then allegedly told her that she had an “amazing body,” and proceeded to wait with her for three hours at the hospital.

“She seemed horrified by it,” said one law enforcement source.

Taranto also later phoned and texted the victim, who notified police.

Taranto was arrested yesterday and charged with sexual abuse.

  1. What's sick is that he is in a position to help, not harm.
