My wife was a paramedic in Atlantic City: she reports nearly having had to use the defibrillator in a defensive mode once--she and her partner had moved their patient out of a rough scene into the ambulance, and some of the rough characters outside were making noise that they were going to "finish the job".

My wife grabbed an O2 tank as a bludgeon, and her partner picked up the paddles and cranked the juice up to max. The first head that stuck itself through the door was going to get a shock treatment! Luckily, the police showed up about then and allowed the ambulance to take off.
