An Arizona mom was busted for assaulting her children and stepkids for not wearing masks after they tested positive for COVID-19, authorities said.
Sarah Michelle Boone, 32, was arrested on charges that include child abuse and disorderly contact after an incident at the family’s home in Wickenburg, news station WMAZ reported.
Police were called to Boone’s home Saturday night on a report that she had hit one child in the face, kicked a second one and picked up a third by the neck, according to court documents.
The alleged assaults were supposedly because the children were not wearing masks despite contracting coronavirus.
Boone allegedly fled before police arrived but cops found her walking down the street.
Police said she ignored their orders to stop then fought them when they tried to arrest her — prompting them to shock her with a stun gun and place her under arrest.
Boone was taken to Maricopa County Jail, where she was also booked on charges for assault, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.
She was released Tuesday on $5,000 bond and is set to appear in court next Jan. 6.
