WHITE PINE-A woman who allegedly has HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C, was arrested and charged with assault and criminal exposure to the diseases, Det. Kevin Benton reported.

Det. Benton said that the 42-year-old woman, accompanied by two people, came to claim property at Evans Towing, at 860 West Highway 25/70, in Newport, on Monday, March 4, where she hoped to claim personal property, the detective stated in his report.
