Bath: Two charged after hospital incident



Gould, Koons

An incident at Ira Davenport Hospital in Bath ended with the arrest of two men. State Police said 25-year-old Jamie Gould of Bath and 26-year-old Cheyenne Koons of Cohocton were both charged with endangering the welfare of a mentally incompetent person. Investigators allege that the men assisted a mental health patient in absconding from the hospital. The patient was awaiting transfer to a mental health facility and fled the hospital prior to transport…allegedly with the assistance of Gould and Koons. The patient was later located and safely returned to the hospital. Court action is pending against both men.
