“Pregnant Woman Is Alive And In Stable Condition”

Paynesville, December 3, 2025 — The Paynesville City Corporation (PCC) wishes to address an incident that occurred earlier today in the redlight commercial hub involving a city officer and a pregnant street seller.

According to initial reports, Officer Solomon Boikai was enforcing the city’s ordinances regarding vending restrictions in the designated commercial area. During this operation, a confrontation arose between Officer Boikai and a female street seller who is pregnant. The situation escalated into a tussle, causing notable distress to the lady involved.

Following the incident, the pregnant lady was promptly taken to the John F. Kennedy Medical Center (JFK) for medical evaluation and care. As of now, she is reported to be in a stable condition and is receiving appropriate medical attention.

The PCC authorities have immediately recalled Officer Solomon Boikai from active duty pending a comprehensive investigation into the matter.
