Nassau-A woman allegedly spat at police officers and threatened to infect them with the coronavirus.
Prosecutors say Evette Wilson, 27, said she had the deadly disease during an encounter with police around 1am on May 13.
Officers on patrol allegedly saw Wilson lying on Malcom Road.
So, they stopped to carry out a welfare check.
That’s when Wilson allegedly spat at the officers and said that she would give them the coronavirus.
Wilson does not have the highly contagious disease.
The officers arrested Wilson and charged her with causing public terror and breaking the coronavirus curfew.
However, Wilson denied making the terroristic threat at her arraignment before Deputy Chief Magistrate Andrew Forbes.
She admitted breaking the curfew and was fined $300. Failure to pay will result in a two-month-long prison sentence.
Wilson’s trial for the coronavirus threat begins on July 14.
