Florida man claims wife tried to kill him with perfume

A Florida woman has been arrested on a charge of aggravated battery after her husband, who is extremely chemical sensitive, claimed she tried to kill him by dousing herself with perfume.

Lynda Taylor, 36, is accused of wearing perfume, burning incense candles, and using numerous air fresheners.

She was arrested at her home in Stuart north of Miami after her husband David complained to police.

"When he came in here to write a complaint, and told us what was going on, frankly we didn' t treat it seriously," said Sergeant Janelle Atlas of the local Sheriff's Department.

Only when Mr Taylor showed investigators a letter from his physician stating that he suffered from extreme chemical sensitivity did officers take his claim seriously.

Mr Taylor was exposed to toxins when he worked as a construction labourer at a building that was later found to contain poisonous chemicals and toxic mold.

In the nine-page complaint, Mr Taylor wrote "...Lynda came in the kitchen wearing perfume...then she went around the house spraying Lysol (a liquid antispetic) and even sprayed some in my face....all day long she kept closing the windows in the house."
