Alleged Drunk Accused Of Racially Abusing Paramedics

A middle-aged woman yesterday denied racially abusing two ambulance workers, who came to her aid on the Albert Embankment.

A friend of 52 year-old Barbara Bolt, 52, raised the alarm because the defendant was drunk and throwing up, Croydon Magistrates’ Court heard.

However, she ended up being arrested after allegedly telling one of the ambulance crew: “You’re a f***ing Puerto Rican c***,” as they were attempting to assist her.

The court was told she quizzed a second Australian worker about where they were from and allegedly said: “F*** off back to where you came from.”

Bolt, of Carey Gardens, South Lambeth pleaded not guilty to the assault and racially-aggravated assault of paramedic Nadia Moreira on August 1, last year.

She also pleaded not guilty to the racially-aggravated harassment of paramedic Adrien Dansette on the same occasion.

Bolt was bailed to return for trial on December 14.
