An investigation is underway at an East Chicago nursing home where a 96-year-old grandmother says she was sexually assaulted by another resident.
The incident allegedly happened at Harbor Health and Rehab located at 5025 McCook Ave.Attorneys say nursing home staff saw the assault happening and stopped it, but the family is demanding more.
"What's particularly concerning to us is we don't understand how the facility has never notified any of its residents as we understand it of the existence of a sexual predator amongst them," the family's attorney said.
