Cops: Univ. of South Carolina student contaminated roommates' food

Videos catches woman contaminating roommates' food

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Police say a University of South Carolina student has been arrested after her roommates set up a camera and caught her spitting and putting window cleaner in their food.

Investigators told media outlets the roommates set up the camera because they had several arguments with 22-year-old Hayley King and she refused to leave their off-campus apartment.

Columbia police say the camera caught King taking several containers of food out of a refrigerator in February and spitting on or spraying window cleaner into them. Authorities say one of the roommates ate out of one of the containers before seeing the video.

King is charged with unlawful, malicious tampering with a human drug product or food. Her lawyer didn't respond to a request for comment.
