On Feb. 3, pro-life onlookers saw a private ambulance park at the Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in Flossmoor, Illinois to transport a woman from the clinic on a gurney.

This is significant because it means that the clinic did not call 911, the fastest way to get emergency care. Rather than ensure that the patient the clinic harmed received the fastest care possible, the clinic chose to call a private company that is not obligated to provide information about the call via a Freedom of Information Act request.

Operation Rescue, which often makes these requests so that it can highlight the dangers of abortion procedures, has recorded five other medical emergencies at this Flossmoor clinic since December 2018.

“When abortion businesses like Planned Parenthood bypass the 911 system, they are doing it to cover up the fact that they hurt someone during an abortion. Any concern for the life or health of the woman involved is secondary,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “Planned Parenthood wants the public to think that abortions are the safest thing in the world, but incidents like this completely expose that lie.”
