A 16-year-old boy working at a Santa Maria fast-food outlet was arrested in suspicion of deliberately poisoning burritos ordered by a California Highway Patrol officer, police said Monday.
The teen was arrested Friday afternoon, more than three weeks after the Nov 10 incident at an eatery on North Bradley road. After purchasing his meal that day, the officer took several bites from a burrito, felt a burning sensation and noticed a strange order emanating from the food. He alerted the restaurant and got the manager's help investigating the incident.
A criminal investigation began after the Santa Maria Police department was contacted several days later. Detectives learned the teen had intentionally placed a small amount of a cleaning compound in the officer's burritos, thinking it would make him sick, police said. He told detectives he was mad at police because he had a bad experience with an officer that same day.
The Santa Maria High School student, whose name was not released because of his age, was booked into Juvenile Hall on suspicion of felony assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer:disgust:
