Woman Kicked Waukesha Nurse In Head; Tried Hurting Cop: Police

WAUKESHA, WI — A Waukesha woman faces several charges after police say she tried head-butting an officer and later kicked and spat on a Waukesha Memorial Hospital nurse following her arrest.

According to Waukesha police call logs, officers were sent to an apartment on the 1000 block of Delafield Street just after 11 p.m. on April 18 for the report of a fight between two women.

Police said one woman who was arrested, Latasha L. Fisher, tried to headbutt her arresting officer. Officers had to tackle her to the ground in the Waukesha County Jail bay, police said.

According to police, Fisher was transported to the Waukesha Memorial Hospital, where she kicked a nurse in the head. Police also said she spat on the nurse and berated the nurse during the course of her treatment.

Court records show that Fisher now faces two felony counts for assaulting an emergency rescue worker and attempting to injure a law enforcement officer. She's also been charged with disorderly conduct, resisting arrest among other misdemeanors.

A signature bond of $2,000 was set in her case, and she is due in court on May 8 for her preliminary hearing.
