A 19-year-old homeless Centralia man has been charged in Marion County Court with aggravated battery to a nurse.
Darrion Walker is accused of groping an emergency room nurse at SSM Health St. Mary’s Hospital on Friday afternoon and asking her if she would marry him. The nurse called security who in turn called Centralia Police. Walker was being treated in the emergency room at the time. He was still at the hospital when police arrived and took him into custody.
Bond for Walker was set at $10,000. If released on bond, he was ordered to have no contact with the victim, her residence or place of employment. The public defender was appointed to represent him.
