Muskogee mall employees accused of tampering with guard's drink

[UtahProtectionForce]

MUSKOGEE, Okla. (AP) - Two workers at Arrowhead Mall in Muskogee are facing charges of putting a chemical in the drink of a mall security guard.

Michael Winlock of Taft and Nicholas Hobbs of Muskogee are accused of putting xylene in a pitcher of tea that security guard Frank Carvajal used to pour himself a drink.

Carvajal became sick from the drink but officials aren't commenting on his current condition.

Xylene is used as a solvent in the printing and rubber industries, as a cleaning agent for steel and as a paint thinner.

Winlock and Hobbs are free on $10,000 bond each.

Interesting... this goes WAY beyond a little weed in a taco supreme.

I hope they charge them with attempted murder. I have used xylene before and it is very toxic just to breath let alone drink.

Hopefully they do get the most serious charge, but it makes you wonder why they would do such a thing. Nutcases or did this guard do something so that they would hate him that much.
