A Lincoln Park man is accused of spitting on hospital staff in two locations to spread a virus amid the novel coronavirus pandemic.
Richard Kechego, 30, was arraigned Wednesday in Wyandotte’s 27th District Court on charges of threatening terrorism and unlawful use of a harmful biological substance, according to Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy’s office.
Kechego also is expected to face arraignment tomorrow in Dearborn on a charge of unlawful use of a harmful biological substance.
Officials say Kechego was in the care of a Wyandotte hospital about 6:50 p.m. March 29 when he verbally assaulted, threatened and spat at several hospital staff members with the intention to infect them with a virus.
