VA Police arrest former pathologist accused of being impaired on the job



FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (KFTA) –– A former Fayetteville Veterans Health Care System of the Ozarks doctor accused of missing diagnosis while impaired at work arrested Saturday.

Dr. Robert Morris Levy, 53 of Fayetteville, was booked into the Washington County Jail just after 9:00 a.m. Saturday. According to his booking record on the Washington County Sheriff’s Office website, he is being held for courtesy/contact hold for federal court.

United States Attorney Duane (DAK) Kees for the Western District of Arkansas announced in a media release Saturday he will be holding a press conference at 2:00 PM on Tuesday, August 20 to discuss the arrest of Levy.
