WESTLAND, MI – A psychiatric patient at a Michigan facility allegedly stabbed a staff member with a metal piece taken from the drop ceiling in his room this week, police said. Michigan State Police were called to the scene around 1:55 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 8, at Walter Reuther Psychiatric Hospital in Westland, MSP said in a tweet. MSP’s preliminary investigation revealed that the patient concealed the object in his waistband and approached the staff member in a hallway. The patient then allegedly stabbed the male staff member in the neck and shoulder area, police said. The wounded staff member was transported to a local hospital where he was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

This is not the first case of monkeypox to surface in the U.S. this year. In July, a Texas resident who traveled to Nigeria came down with monkeypox, according to The Hill. According to the CDC, monkeypox is a “rare but potentially serious” disease where people who come down with the disease develop flu-like symptoms and swelling of the lymph nodes before breaking out into a rash throughout the body.
