A man was arrested after allegedly manipulating the drink of his co -worker, who was captured in a secret chamber established by her to catch the culprit in the spot.
Joseph Ross, 34, was arrested in Milwaukee last week and was accused of placing foreign objects on the Coca-Cola can of a woman in her workplace on the land of Wisconsin State Fair Park.
The woman, identified as ‘JH’ in a criminal complaint, began to suspect that her tail was being contaminated after noticing a “strong smell and chemical taste” and became ill after drinking it, as reported by Fox6.
He then installed a hidden surveillance chamber under his computer monitor to determine if someone was adding something to his drink, according to the complaint.
After reviewing the images, his worst fears realized when he saw Ross allegedly pouring super glue in his drink from a small bottle with a white nozzle and then leaving the frame.
After making the surprising discovery, JH arrested the police in the area, transmitted the information and delivered the images.
When he met, Ross admitted “add a supplement” to his co -worker’s drink.
Police reports that while allegedly manipulated her drink, the 34 -year -old woman had transparent latex gloves, which she later ruled out.
The police obtained an order to search the Ross office and discovered that the gloves and the Gorilla brand supergege “got into a ball.”
“When the officers unleashed the gloves, the officers discovered that each one contained an article,” said the police.
“A glove contained a blue plastic lid. The other glove contained a super glue container.”
The accused soft drink spike was arrested and accused on Tuesday.
His bond was set at $ 10,000 (approximately $ 15,894 Aud), and could face up to 38 months in prison, according to TMJ4.
The motivations behind their actions are not known at this time.
“This is extremely alarming and definitely has elements of great violence,” said Commissioner Andrea Balender during the hearing of the Virtual Milwaukee County Court of Ross on Wednesday.
Wisconsin State Fair Park issued a statement by saying: “The two people involved were used by a supplier and were not employees of State Fair Park, therefore, we cannot comment on the work state.”
“However, since this incident occurred while in State Fair Park, our police department responded, conducted an exhaustive investigation and presented the report to the District prosecutor. In addition, our police department has issued an ‘opening order’ to the person who is charged.”
“While this incident did not occur among State Fair Park employees and did not involve any client, we want to reiterate that security is the highest priority in State Fair Park, and we take these matters very seriously.”
