On the morning of December 20, 2021, Bristol Township police were dispatched to Lower Bucks Hospital for a reported assault by a patient who was still being combative, according to court papers.
Upon arrival, officers found Oleg Kravets, 24, in an altercation with staff, police said.
The 24-year-old man was restrained by officers and the “situation was deescalated,” police said.

A nurse at the hospital said Kravets bit him through his pants, breaking skin, police stated.
Officers were advised Karvets pushed a staff member into a door a few days prior and knocked another staff member to the ground, causing them to strike their head on a nurse’s station, police said.

Staff relayed to police that they were in fear for their safety.
Police said they photographed the bite injury to the nurse.

Kravets was preliminarily arraigned by District Judge Kevin Wager on two counts of aggravated assault, three counts of simple assault, and three counts of harassment. He was jailed on 10 percent of $150,000 bail.
Last year, Kravets pleaded guilty to stalking a 20-year-old Northampton woman in 2019. He was sentenced to three years of probation.
