RIDLEY PARK, Pa. (WPVI) -- Prosecutors say a Delaware County nurse pretended she was too hurt to work while secretly teaching exercise classes at the same time.

36-year old Jamie Scott reported a shoulder injury from lifting a patient at Taylor Hospital in Ridley Park.

She didn't work for 4 months, but continued receiving more than $50,000 in wages and medical expenses from Crozer-Keystone Health System.

However, she was arrested, after police say she was caught on video, teaching resistance band and spinning classes at the Ridley Township YMCA.

Scott is charged with insurance fraud.
