Police arrested a Bountiful man early on Friday for allegedly groping a nurse who was helping a woman who was in labour with his baby at an Ogden hospital.
Adam Jay Manning, 30, brought a pregnant woman in labor to McKay-Dee Hospital at around 3 a.m. on Friday, said Ogden police Lt. Loring Draper. When a nurse came to assist the couple, Manning looked the nurse "up and down" and made an observation about her appearance, Draper said. "He makes a comment about how cute she looks," Draper said.
The nurse ignored Manning and continued helping the woman in labour, who was in a wheelchair and waiting to be taken to a delivery room. Manning continued his pursuit of the nurse, however, by telling her something looked wrong with her neck, Draper said. He attempted to massage the nurse's neck and then reached out and grabbed her breast, Draper said.
The nurse pushed Manning away and moved to the other side of the wheelchair, Draper said. She reported the incident to police, who arrested Manning on suspicion of felony forcible sexual abuse. He was being held in the Weber County jail. Draper said it's unclear whether the woman in labour was married to Manning or if she was a girlfriend. She gave birth to the baby after Manning's arrest. "Obviously, he wasn't there for the birth of the child," Draper said.
