A&E Thug Caged For Nurse Attack

A hospital thug, who attacked a female nurse in A&E, has been locked-up.

Prince Isaac Walker, 32, rendered 36 year-old nurse Sarah Tappy unconscious as a result of the assault at Homerton Hospital, east London

He was arrested on January 22 and kept in custody until his appearance at Highbury Corner Magistrates' Court the next day.

Walker pleaded guilty to one count of assaulting an emergency worker and was sentenced to twenty-six weeks imprisonment.

In the early hours of January 21 officers were at the hospital when they were alerted that a nurse had been assaulted in the A&E department.

Officers quickly detained Walker, who was taken to an east London police station and was charged later that day.

The nurse lost consciousness following the assault and required treatment. 

Her injuries were not life threatening.

PC Kyri Soupashis, the investigating officer, said: “This was a needlessly vicious attack on an emergency worker simply doing her job. 

“I hope that the sentence handed down brings the victim a measure of satisfaction and that she is able to recover from what was a very frightening experience.

“There is no justification for assaulting the people who devote their working lives to helping and protecting others, something that Walker will have time to reflect on as he serves his sentence.”
