ROCK HILL, S.C. – A local teen who was put under a 14-day quarantine could be facing 10 years behind bars after authorities said she coughed on Rock Hill police officers, then laughed about it on video.
Police said what you see in the video is not a laughing matter.
“We have a 17-year-old juvenile female who went on Facebook live and went and coughed on the officers and laughed about it,” said Lt. Michael Chavis with the Rock Hill Police Department.
Some may call it a cruel joke, but once the video made the rounds on social media, it quickly became serious business. That’s because they say the girl was instructed to self-quarantine for 14-days by a medical professional, and officers didn’t know it at the time.
