Monticello woman punched Child Protective Services worker in face, cops say
MONTICELLO — A Monticello woman was arrested and charged with assault, a felony, after punching a Child Protective Services worker in the face, police said.
Monticello police were assisting a female employee of the Sullivan County Child Protective Services Unit in removing a child from a home on Osborne Street on Tuesday, when Tina Esquilin, 26, arrived at the home and began arguing with the worker, police said. Esquilin then lunged across a room and punched the CPS worker in the face, police said.
Police immediately arrested Esquilin. She was arraigned in Monticello Village Court and sent to Sullivan County Jail on $1,000 bail.
