| 2018-09-17 |
| [The Sun] A POISONING panic gripped Salisbury as two restaurant diners were today taken ill close to where the Skripals collapsed. Police in bio-hazard suits shut down part of the city centre on Sunday as they dealt with a "medical incident" in a branch of Prezzo. They evacuated nearby restaurants and pubs while they investigated why the man and woman were taken ill ‐ amid reports from Sky News that one is Russian. PA reported that a source briefed by emergency services said the police were called as the symptoms were consistent with Novichok poisoning. They said: "The ambulance crew at the site took the decision that the symptoms seemed consistent with Novichok poisoning which is why they called their colleagues in the police. They added: "The symptoms of Novhichok poisoning and particular types of narcotic abuse are very similar." |
