A NURSE at Mbagwe Clinic in Plumtree has been arrested on charges of assaulting a colleague following a dispute over a $10 bill.
The nurse also faces two other charges after she attacked other two fellow colleagues in the past and the cases are pending in courts.
Matabeleland South police spokesperson Inspector Philisani Ndebele confirmed the arrest of Sikhethiwe Tshuma for allegedly assaulting Lynet Ndlovu (45) after they had a misunderstanding while at their work station.
"I have received the report and l can safely confirm that Tshuma from Mbagwe Clinic in Madabe had an argument with not only one of her colleagues, but three of them. The arguments led to her having rage and resorting to violence," Ndebele said.
He said the minor argument was about lunch allowances, which had been allocated to her colleague.
