A 26-year-old Memphis woman was arrested on Christmas Eve after allegedly assaulting a nurse at Methodist South Hospital, stating she did not want to be treated by a white attendant.
The incident occurred on Tuesday when the woman, Dashawna Williams, reportedly punched a nurse in the face with a closed fist while receiving treatment at the hospital. According to law enforcement, Williams admitted to striking the nurse because of her race.
Officers responded to the scene and took Williams into custody. She has been charged with assault. Authorities noted that Williams is believed to have mental health conditions, and crisis intervention team officers were present at the hospital during the incident.
Court records also revealed that Williams had an outstanding warrant from December 4 in connection to a carjacking case, according to a report from WREG.

Only charged with assault? No hate crime?

One of the few things New York state got right: Strike a nurse here and it is a felony.

Never heard of an assault because the patient was black.
