A 32-year-old microbiology graduate student from Wyoming has been taken into custody for allegedly poisoning a colleague and attempting to flee to China, according to reporting by The Guardian and the New York Post.

The Guardian reported that prosecutors accused Aili Wang of targeting a coworker with whom she had personal friction and who held pending patents. Wang was apprehended on October 6 at Los Angeles International Airport following an interview with law enforcement.

Details published by the New York Post indicate that the chemical involved was acrylamide, which Wang allegedly purchased on eBay. The substance was uncovered after the victim's spouse and others arranged tests on water taken from the coffee machine he used to make tea.
