When the boy struggled to keep his mouth closed, Eh slapped him and forced the spoon into his mouth as he cried, Eh’s 12-year-old daughter told investigators, according to an affidavit the News obtained.
The older children ran to their grandmother’s apartment, which was in the same Lake Highlands complex, to tell her what happened, police said.
“My mom wants to kill us with poison powder that kills ants and stuff,” the seven-year-old boy reportedly told authorities, the News wrote.
