Woman who coughed on cancer patient during mask dispute is arrested and charged

A woman who was caught on video deliberately coughing on a cancer patent in a Florida Pier 1 store was arrested just over a week ago, First Coast News reports.

The video shows Debra Hunter walk up to Heather Sprague, who says she’s a cancer patient, and cough in her face. Sprague was wearing a mask because she’s being treated for a brain tumor and has a weakened immune system.

According to First Coast News, Sprague filed a police report a few days after the incident. Hunter was arrested on July 22 and charged with assault. She’s due to be arraigned on August 19.
