TYLER \u2014 Police in Tyler seek a suspect after a breast augmentation operation apparently began causing serious problems. On February 19, police were contacted by family members of a victim who stated that she had a breast augmentation (by injection) procedure performed on both her breasts on February 15 in Tyler. The victim, identified as Sheena Bradford, 26, of Longview, was admitted into a hospital in Longview on February 16 for severe chest pains. Bradford\u2019s condition is currently listed as critical.<\/p>\n
Tyler Investigators have determined that the procedure, which they term illegal, was conducted for a fee in a back room of Queen Divas Hair Salon and Spa, located at 102 East Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in Tyler. Investigators obtained a search warrant on the business, looking for any evidence that may be related to this case, and evidence was seized by crime scene investigators. Investigators and doctors are attempting to determine what type of substance or fluid was pumped into the woman\u2019s chest cavity. Upon further investigation, investigators are alleging that the suspect responsible for the procedure is Carmel Mitchelle Foster-Alexander, 38, of Tyler, who is the Owner of Queen Divas Hair Salon and Spa.<\/p>\n
Investigators have obtained two arrest warrants for Foster for practicing medicine in violation of subtitle, a third degree felony; for practicing medicine without a license, breast augmentation; and causing Sheena Bradford physical harm. The second warrant was issued for a procedure that Foster had conducted on Bradford\u2019s cousin about two weeks ago. That victim is identified as Kenya Sheppard, 27, of Gladewater. Total bond was set at $200,000. Foster has not been taken into custody at this time. Tyler Police encourage anyone who has had any medical procedure performed by Carmel Foster in the past, and wishes to file charges, to contact Detective Andy Erbaugh at 903-531-1090. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
