Officers have branded a man “deplorable” after he was spotted filming a medical emergency on his mobile phone while driving.
Leicestershire Police said a woman suffered a medical episode in Burton Street, Melton Mowbray, at about 13:45 GMT on Tuesday, and a passing motorist “thought it would be a good idea to film this”.
The driver was stopped and issued with a traffic offence report, which could result in six points on his licence and a £200 fine.
In a social media post, the force said filming the “busy and distressing scene” was a “deplorable thing to do”.
It added: “Hopefully this post acts as a reminder to those who think this type of behaviour is acceptable.
“Have some respect for other people and concentrate on driving correctly.”
