An affidavit of probable cause notes that on Monday, Kromah punched a nurse in the face while at Lower Bucks Hospital on Bath Road. The nurse told police the assault was completely unprovoked and without warning, giving him no time to protect himself.

The victim suffered a cut and swelling to the effected area as a result, according to court documents.

Kromah, who was arraigned later Monday afternoon by District Judge Robert L. Wagner Jr., awaits a preliminary hearing with District Judge Joanne Kline set for November 17.
