A disgraced emergency medical technician charged last year with doing nothing while a pregnant woman died in a Brooklyn Au Bon Pain was busted Tuesday for shoplifting, authorities said.
Melissa Jackson, 23, was collared in Long Island after trying to swipe under $50 worth of cosmetics from a Westbury Walmart, Nassau County police said.
Nassau County cops charged Jackson with petit larceny. Fire officials said she was suspended for 30 days without pay.
Jackson was charged in October with official misconduct for not acting as expectant mom Eutisha Rennix, 25, suffered an asthma attack at the downtown Brooklyn restaurant. Jackson was on a lunch break with her boyfriend, EMT Jason Green, who was also accused for not helping the ailing woman.
Jackson called a dispatcher, but witnesses told authorities that the pair did nothing to help Rennix, who later died along with her premature baby.
Green was fatally shot in July outside a SoHo nightclub.
