Paramedic arrested after patient claims assault

DENVER - A paramedic for Denver Health Medical Center has been arrested because a patient says the paramedic broke his nose, eye socket and fractured his skull.

Denver Police arrested Alan Miller Thursday afternoon on investigation of first degree assault.

Detectives say Miller is suspected of assaulting a patient in his care on Jan. 3.

The patient's wife says her husband suffered a seizure and was taken to Denver Health by ambulance.

She says when she arrived at the hospital, she found bruises that she says her husband did not have when he left in the ambulance.

The paramedic no longer works for Denver Health.
