THIS WEEK ON "BOSTON EMS" A DISTRAUGHT DRIVER CRASHES A CAR INTO A HIGHWAY BARRIER ON PURPOSE

PLUS: 18 GUNSHOTS MISSED HIM BUT WILL A YOUNG MAN CHANGE HIS LIFESTYLE?

"Boston EMS" Continues Saturday, August 8 at 10:00PM/ET on ABC

"Boston EMS" continues this week, taking viewers to the streets of Boston to deliver an intimate portrait of the proud men and women of the nation's most seasoned group of first responders. Viewers ride along with some of the EMTs and paramedics who responded to the desperate calls of runners and spectators when bombs exploded at the Boston Marathon more than two years ago. They treated horribly injured patients at the scene and then ferried them to Boston's outstanding hospitals. Their professionalism earned the gratitude of a shell-shocked and grief-stricken city. But every day, the 350 men and women of the EMS are there, in all seasons and at all hours, serving up medical expertise accompanied by compassion and even friendship. The series is part of this summer's one-two punch from ABC offering viewers a unique glimpse into real life medicine. Its companion series is the critically-praised "Save My Life: Boston Trauma," a tour de force inside Boston's top hospital ERs, airing Sundays at 10:00 p.m., ET. "Boston EMS" airs SATURDAY, AUGUST 8 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

In episode three, a driver going through a personal crisis deliberately crashes into a highway railing. A paramedic at the scene says this is more common than one might think.

Also in this episode, a man avoids a spray of bullets and escapes with a single gunshot wound. When EMTs discover an old wound, they are less impressed by his luck and more concerned about his future. And a homeless man, hoping to spend the night in a warm hospital bed, decides to sit naked in a crowded Boston street. Elsewhere, EMTs responding to a young woman in the midst of a seizure discover that her service dog has answers to some of their questions. Finally, a woman suddenly falls ill and crashes her car into a house and a paramedic ends up in the middle of a parking lot fight.

With their previous series, the producers pioneered a new form of television - unscripted authentic medical drama. Terence Wrong is the executive producer of "Save My Life: Boston Trauma" and "Boston EMS," along with the critically-acclaimed "Hopkins, "Boston Med," and "NY Med." Erica Baumgart is the senior producer. Andy Genovese, Aysu Grodowski and Alexa Coyle are series producers. Monica DelaRosa is story and digital producer. Carly Stipek is field producer. "Boston EMS" is produced by ABC's Lincoln Square Productions for ABC News.
