HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) --

The Cabell County Sheriff’s Office says a Huntington woman has been arrested for stealing a vial of swine flu vaccine during a vaccination clinic on Thursday.

They say the theft happened at the Health Department’s clinic at the New Baptist Church.

Deputies arrested 25-year-old Elizabeth Wilson of Huntington.
Chief Deputy Doug Ferguson, who was at the clinic, tells WSAZ.com that the vial of the swine flu vaccine was found in Wilson’s purse.

Ferguson, says he confronted Wilson after a health department employee told him that Wilson was trying to steal several syringes.

Ferguson says Wilson was at the clinic to get her three children vaccinated.

He says Wilson told him she took the vaccine because it wasn't available for her age group at Thursday's clinic.

Wilson is charged with petty larceny. She is currently in the Western Regional Jail.

Ferguson says the children are now in the care of Wilson’s mom who was with her daughter at the clinic.
