An Ogden (UT) man was charged after stealing an ambulance just after the New Year, according to authorities.

Police said Mitchell Bryce May stole the ambulance on January 3 after first responders were called to a medical call at an apartment complex, the Deseret News reported. The ambulance was later found abandoned behind a house several hours later.

Video footage was also obtained that showed the man who stole the vehicle, police said.

On January 11, police were called to a disturbance where May was accused of being violent. Officers saw May was allegedly in possession of a bag of suspected methamphetamine.

The police affidavit states May allegedly resisted arrest and struggled with officers. May is also accused of grabbing a TASER from an officer and shooting it off. No officer was struck by the discharge.

Police said May admitted to stealing the ambulance while in police custody at the station.
