(b) Peter’s friend who is called Chin invited him to ride a bike in a jungle.

Why not the jungle? Maybe there was more than one jnngle.

(c) John saw it what is it? and called the ambulance to send Peter to the hospital.

I am just curious if "THE hospital" is necessary here. Could someone cast light on this matter? Personally, I wouldn't use "THE" here. It will depend on whether a specific hospital is involved, or a non-specific. It can be either "a hospital" or "the hospital".
