Two FDNY emergency medical technicians were robbed at gunpoint after racing to a bogus medical emergency in a Brooklyn public housing building early Saturday.
The 2:40 a.m. heist was the second time in a week that EMTs have been held up in Brooklyn during a fake 911 call, authorities said.
The EMTs, ages 25 and 23, were responding to a report of a seizure patient in an apartment on Frost St. near Morgan Ave. part of the Cooper Park Houses in East Williamsburg when they were accosted, police said.
They were getting out of an elevator when a hulking 6-foot-2 man pulled a gun on them, cops said.
