An alleged attack on a female patient inside Kings County Hospital has some calling for more security.

The Brooklyn district attorney said Orlando-Gregory Campfield was arrested early Tuesday morning for allegedly forcibly touching another patient.

Clark Pena, the president of the hospital police PBA, said that although the arrest was made by a hospital police officer, the city is not hiring enough officers to stop these incidents from happening.

"You have candidates that are ready, willing and able to serve as hospital police officers," Pena said. "Let's get them through an academy, let's get them trained and let's get them into these facilities so situations like this will not occur again."

The New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation said it's ensuring that the woman who was attacked is receiving the support she and her family need.
