An Australian woman is charged after police allege she contaminated a colleague’s homemade curry with poisonous snail pellets at a workplace in Oldbury. Multiple outlets report the alleged victim noticed bright green granules in the meal, and one account says her tongue went numb after eating.

Police say the accused and the alleged victim are connected through a “personal relationship,” with the woman allegedly attempting to poison the other woman. One report adds that the case involves an apparent attempt to harm her relationship partner. The accused is due to face court, while authorities continue to investigate the circumstances around the meal and the source and use of the pellets.
