Are you concerned about new terror threats in the wake of the Christmas attempted attack?


A veteran Milwaukee firefighter was charged with drugging his wife's tea with his anti-depressent medication because he said he wanted to calm her after an argument. A criminal complaint charges the 43-year-old man with a felony. He was in the Milwaukee County jail Tuesday on $10,000 bail and was unavailable for comment.

Prosecutors said the man gave his wife a cup of tea Saturday. She in turn let their 3-year-old son drink from the cup. When he finished, his wife noticed he was spitting a white substance back into the cup.

The wife, a Milwaukee police detective, confronted her husband. He admitted putting Lexapro in the tea. She called police. The firefighter told an investigator he wanted to calm his wife after an argument about a bill.

The prosecutor said both wife and child were unharmed.
