Police officials said they were called to the hospital around 11:30 a.m. after receiving reports of a suspicious woman trespassing on hospital property. Officials arrested 56-year-old Susan Drucker in the maternity wing of the hospital.
According to the police report, hospital employees had seen Ms. Drucker milling about the hospital on numerous occasions, but would walk away any time a member of the hospital staff approached her.
Police said Ms. Drucker was wearing a jacket or shirt allegedly from New York-Presbyterian Hospital, but it is unknown whether she is associated with the hospital. Officials also found several hospital wristbands in her purse with other people’s names on them, but it remains unclear whether she interacted with patients at Stamford, according to the article.
Ms. Drucker was charged with second-degree criminal trespassing and disorderly conduct. She is currently out on bond and is scheduled to appear in court on Sept. 19.
