A Kentucky woman diagnosed with the coronavirus was arrested at a grocery store for allegedly repeatedly refusing to self-quarantine.
Police say that Kendra Burnett, 37, was busted at a Kroger in Louisville on Monday after a witness said she was at the store in violation of a court order. She had previously been diagnosed with COVID-19 and had been court-ordered to self-quarantine. When Louisville Metro Police officers got to the store a woman outside, who said she was Burnett’s mother, pointed them to her daughter as she left the store.
Police said Burnett had been in contact with approximately five people while inside the store, and there were about 200 people inside the building while she was there.
She was arrested and allegedly kicked out the rear tail light of the squad car and damaged the interior handle.
