A man and his daughter were found in critical condition following a "brazen and reckless" nerve agent attack.
A nerve agent was likely used to poison a Russian ex-spy and his daughter in England, new reports suggest.
The former spy, Sergei Skripal, 66, and his daughter, Yulia, 33, were found slumped on a park bench in Salisbury, England, on Sunday (March 4). Both Skripals allegedly looked pale and stiff; vomit was pouring from Sergei's mouth while his daughter sat frothing at the mouth with wide-open eyes, according to U.S. News and World Report.
