A woman was arrested after reportedly going to work instead of stopping to assist when she allegedly hit her coworker with her vehicle in the parking lot.

On September 7, a 67-year-old woman from New Orleans was running late for her shift at a nursing home in Slidell. When she got there, she entered the one-way cul-de-sac that surrounds the entrance of the building, and she saw an open parking spot behind her. When she backed up, she reportedly struck an individual later identified as one of her coworkers. According to reports, she went into the building and clocked in instead of helping the alleged victim, but she told other employees that the woman had fallen outside. Paramedics took the woman to a nearby hospital, where an examination of her injuries caused the doctors to believe that they were not caused by a fall. The authorities were notified, and officers from the Slidell Police Department went to the nursing home to investigate the scene.

They reviewed the surveillance footage, and the police reported that they saw the incident as it occurred. They also noted that the suspect picked up a piece of her car that was damaged, causing them to believe she “knew she struck a person and went as far as to remove evidence to cover her tracks.”

Two people were arrested in connection with a criminal case involving an elderly person after the police believed they were abusing and stealing money from the man.

According to reports, last November, an elderly man who was residing in a nursing home and receiving medical care was released into the custody of a 58-year-old man, despite the facility warning that the move would likely cause his health to suffer. Approximately five months later, the authorities were notified about a situation involving possible domestic violence, and the police were sent to the home where the former patient was currently residing. When they arrived and approached the residence, they reported that a man and woman were standing at the front door and yelling at each other. They soon learned that the argument was about the elderly man, who was reportedly found in poor physical health.

When they looked into the situation, the authorities reportedly discovered a record showing that the 58-year-old had taken more than $40,000 from the alleged victim’s bank accounts. They suspected he had stolen the money and that the woman was also involved in the situation.
