Man accused of putting Roundup weed killer in co-worker’s water

Dunton’s co-worker noticed his water tasted odd and that it foamed when shaken, he told police. The co-worker set up a a camera in his office and obtained two videos from two different days showing Dunton entering the office, removing the water bottle, and returning it moments later, according to police. In one video, Dunton could be seen wiping the bottle remove fingerprints before returning it to his co-worker’s desk, police said. “When interviewed, the accused admitted to placing a small amount of liquid Roundup weed killer in the victim’s water bottle on four to five occasions,” the warrant states. “The accused claimed he did not want to kill the victim, only ‘mess with him.’” Dunton’s co-worker was not seriously injured, but sought treatment after experiencing kidney pain, according to police.
