[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] A bizarre incident occurred where a woman in her 30s tried to spread the COVID-19 virus to an upstairs neighbor with whom she was having conflicts over 'inter-floor noise.'


On the 12th, according to the Ulsan Nambu Police Station, a woman in her 30s, identified as A, was arrested and booked on charges of attempted special injury.


A is accused of smearing her bodily fluids on a bicycle in front of the upstairs neighbor B's house while infected with COVID-19 last month.


It was investigated that A smeared bodily fluids on a children's bicycle among two bicycles in front of B's house.


B, who was checking the CCTV in front of the house, reported suspicious behavior by A to the police, and police investigation revealed that the COVID-19 virus was detected on the bicycle handle.


It is known that B and other upstairs residents were not infected.


The police believe that A, who had been in conflict with B over inter-floor noise issues for over a year, committed this act with the intent to retaliate.



The police are investigating the circumstances of the crime and whether there was a violation of the Infectious Disease Control and Prevention Act.
