In a disturbing incident at UNC Rex Hospital in Raleigh, North Carolina, a man is accused of using his HIV positive blood as a weapon against hospital workers while receiving treatment for diabetes. Kameron Gilchrist, 25, allegedly removed his IV and began “spraying” his blood into the eyes of two healthcare professionals attending to him.
According to an arrest warrant, Gilchrist intentionally aimed his blood at the victims, resulting in felony charges for assaulting emergency personnel.
