3-year-old boy killed after being ejected from Bobcat loader

GAFFNEY, S.C. (AP) — The Cherokee County Coroner's Office says a 3-year-old boy has died after being thrown from a Bobcat loader driven by a relative.

WSPA-TV reports the boy died Monday night in Gaffney. A spokesman with the coroner's office says the bucket of the Bobcat's loader was filled with bricks and toppled forward when it became off-balance, causing the boy to hit his head before falling on the ground. The boy died at the hospital.

It is unclear who was driving the vehicle at the time of the accident.

Cops: Student spit and put window cleaner in roommates' food

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — 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 that 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 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 human drug product or food. Her lawyer didn't respond to a request to comment.
