Ambulance should be dispatched in all such cases regardless of severity, because, first, you never know the extent of damage, second, even in case of a fatality, a doctor must confirm death and direct the body for autopsy.

Eventually, it was dispatched by ICE officials themselves, but in a way that thoroughly prevented any attempt to save the victim’s life. Citing the article:

After the shooting, Callenson said a neighbor identifying himself as a doctor asked if he could render aid to the woman who shot but was told by ICE agents to stand back. She said emergency responders’ vehicles couldn’t get past ICE vehicles, so firefighters and other first responders had to walk to the injured woman.

So, they basically made all they legally could (they MUST call ambulance) to ensure she dies anyway. This was possibly preventable.

It is not true that nothing can be done about getting shot point blank in the head. You never know. Never assume unless you can see for yourself.
