Pregnant woman sits down in street

Ypsilanti police arrested a pregnant woman who officers day repeatedly walked into a busy downtown street Sunday night.

Officers were called to a fight in progress near the corner of Hamilton and Pearl streets about 9:30 p.m. and found a man and a woman arguing near the intersection.

Police said the woman walked into Hamilton Street, and an officer escorted her to the sidewalk. When the officer let go, she ran back into the street, walked to the curb, and then again walked into the middle of the street and sat down.

The officer arrested the woman, who said she was three months pregnant.

She was taken to St. Joseph Mercy Hospital as a precaution.
