A man has been arrested after deliberately coughing in the face of a paramedic, police said. The ambulance service was called just before 11pm on Saturday to a man in Stroud, Gloucestershire, who was feeling unwell. "They attended an address where another man who was self-isolating allegedly deliberately coughed in the face of one of the paramedics," a spokeswoman for Gloucestershire Police said. "The man, a 43-year-old, was arrested, charged and remanded for assaulting an emergency worker by way of coughing and threatening GBH by infecting with Covid-19." The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has warned that purposefully coughing at someone while claiming to have coronavirus could bring an assault charge.
