Former emergency vehicle operator with extensive EVOC training here.
Ambulance driver is at fault. It’s called “driving with due regard for public safety.” The use of sirens and warning lights does not automatically give the right of way to the emergency vehicle. These devices simply request the right of way from the other drivers.
The ambulance driver must clear the intersection before proceeding. He/she did not, especially against a red light. You should 100% fight this ticket, and you will absolutely win.
