(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 13 - A 16-year-old boy punched a nurse in
Reggio Emilia Sunday amid a wave of assaults on medical staff in
Italy, the hospital said Wednesday.
On Tuesday a Calabrian ER chief was attacked with a cosh by a
patient's relative irked at her being discharged rather than
admitted.
The minor punched the nurse in the face in the emergency room in
the Emilian city and was cited on charges of causing harm to
medical personnel. (ANSA).
