Investigation of Star Ambulance Announced

With the assistance of attorney Carl H. Starrett II, Special Investigations Agency ("SIA") is conducting an investigation into Star Ambulance, Inc., which formerly held its principal office at 4400 Palm Ave., Suite C, La Mesa, CA 91941. Star Ambulance was formed by Larry McEwen in November 2000.

In March 2006, Emergency Medical Technicians employed by Star Ambulance allege that their paychecks began to bounce. A few months later, the former employees allege that Mr. McEwen closed the company bank accounts, sold the ambulances on hand to Fire Etc. which sells used fire equipment and left the employees without paying more than $20,000.00 in wages.

I was a former employee of star ambulance and there were countless times that the ambulances were broken and not safe and the owner would put them out in the field to transport patients. My paychecks had bounced several times before i quit and trying to get the money was a hassle. I am glad to see that someone is taking action against that crook Larry McEwen.
