Man Accused of Trying to Poison Pregnant Girlfriend so she Would Miscarry

GALENA, Md. (AP) -- A dairy farmer is accused of giving a cattle hormone to a woman he got pregnant in hopes of inducing a miscarriage.

Police said 25-year-old William Stanley Sutton III added ProstaMate last week to a soda drank by a woman carrying his child, 21-year-old Lauren Ashley Tucker.

Tucker felt sick to her stomach and vomited after drinking a 20-ounce soda Sutton gave her that "tasted nasty and burnt her throat," according to court records.

She went to the hospital Aug. 9, and the hospital reported a possible poisoning to police.
