NH woman accused of feeding two children bleach

SEABROOK, N.H. (MyFoxBoston.com) -- A Seabrook, N.H. woman is facing charges for allegedly feeding two children bleach.

Police were issued an arrest warrant Friday for Wendy Wright, 33, of 15 True Road. Wright will be charged with two counts of attempted first degree assault.

Wright is accused of trying to harm two children under the age of 13 by making them consume bleach.

The 33-year-old is being treated at a hospital in Boston for an unknown ailment. She will be arrested by Mass. law enforcement officials as a fugitive from justice at the end of her treatment before being returned to N.H. to answer to the charges.

Investigators did not say what relationship Wright had to the children, but they did say arrangements have been made for their care and custody in family court.

If found guilty of the charges, Wright could face between 7 1/2 to 15 years in prison and a $4,000 fine on each count.
