MONCTON, N.B.—RCMP in New Brunswick say one person has been arrested in connection with allegations that patients at the Moncton Hospital were improperly given a labour-inducing drug earlier this year. Mathieu Roy says the suspect was arrested on Monday, questioned, and released with a promise to appear in court next May. Roy says no charge has been laid, and no details about the suspect’s identity will be released at this time. The women are claiming that the Moncton Hospital either knew or should have known the registered nurse allegedly added the drug to intravenous saline bags hooked up to pregnant women.
