Video of woman crawling outside Alberta hospital sparks outrage, investigation

An incident captured on video that shows a woman crawling outside of Chinook Regional Hospital in Lethbridge, Alta. has sparked multiple investigations.

Pauline Johnston captured the video on Sept. 3, where she says she saw security guards take the woman off the property in a wheelchair and leave her at a nearby bus shelter.

"She started to crawl on her hands and knees back towards the hospital," Johnston said. "She appeared to have on some kind of leg braces or mobility aids on her legs, like she couldn't stand on her own. Then she was intercepted by hospital security."

According to Johnston, she called Lethbridge Police, who came and took the woman away.

She calls it just the latest instance where a person has been removed from hospital property and left without transportation.
