The Daytona Beach Police Department received a call around 2:30 a.m. Tuesday in reference to a stolen vehicle at the hospital, according to Orlando's WKMG-TV. A paramedic at the hospital told authorities the suspect had entered an ambulance that was parked outside while she and other crew members were inside, attending to a patient, the report said.

She said the vehicle's back doors were left unlocked because they had just wheeled a patient into the hospital, the station reported. Another crewmember added that earlier, Peacock had asked him for a ride in the ambulance, but they denied his request.
