SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A judge
has ordered a blood transfusion for
a premature baby despite religious
objections from the child’s parents.
The infant girl, who weighs about
1 pound, will remain in state custody
until she no longer needs critical
medical care, said State District
Judge Tom Rickhoff, who signed
the order Monday.
Hospital spokesman Terrie Car
ter said the child was in critical con
dition Tuesday at Santa Rosa Medi
cal Center’s neonatal intensive care
unit. The child was born Friday with
a condition requiring a blood trans
fusion to save her life.
“I talked with the doctor in person
to make sure it was life-threatening
if she did not get the treatment,”
Rickhoff said.
He said the infant’s parents had
refused to allow the transfusion on
religious grounds.
The court order allowing the
transfusion gives the state custody
for 10 days, at which time a hearing
will be held.
The following incidents were
reported to the University Police
Department from Oct. 12

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — An el
derly couple was trapped in their
home for 24 hours after the ill
woman fell and her wheelchair-
bound, blind husband toppled over
her, officials said.
Guadalupe Alvarez, 90, and Jua
nita Alvarez, 79, were in satisfactory
condition Tuesday at Southeast Bap
tist Hospital, hospital spokesman
Mary Watson said.
The couple was found Monday
morning by their nurse, who had
gone to visit Mrs. Alvarez, who suf
fers from a heart condition and
other ailments.
Ruth Stone, a licensed vocational
nurse, said Emergency Medical
Service technicians later told her
that Mrs. Alvarez was found on her
side beneath her husband.
Alvarez was awake and alert when
authorities arrived, but Mrs. Alvarez
barely could speak. Stone said.
“They think she was trying to
reach for her medical alarm, but
couldn’t press it,” she said.
“Apparently she had fallen and he
had tried to help her get up,” Stone
said.
Alden Johnson, 44, was arraigned
Monday on a bribery count, with
bond set at $50,000, Arlington po
lice spokesman Dee Anderson re
ported.
A judge later ordered Johnson re
leased from the Arlington City Jail.
Johnson’s supervisors at work call
the case of bribery an “isolated inci
dent.”
“This is the first instance we’ve
ever had of something like this,” Pat
Potter
said. 8
Johnson was fired lastllio
after officials learned policeplj
