Matt Dunham/AP Dawn Sturgess, the British woman killed by the nerve agent novichok, may have sprayed it on herself from a perfume bottle. A member of her extended family said Sturgess sprayed an odd-smelling substance from a bottle on her wrists not long before she fell ill. Charlie Rowley, Sturgess's partner, recounted the moment in a phone call with his brother, which he described to MailOnline. Police have confirmed that novichok was found in a "small bottle" in Rowley's home near Salisbury, Wiltshire. Rowley cannot remember where the bottle came from, his brother said. The perfume scenario conforms to a theory that Sturgess was collateral damage from an assassination attempt on former spy Sergei Skripal earlier this year. The British woman who was killed by the nerve agent novichok was exposed by unwittingly spraying perfume laced with the substance onto her own wrists, according to a new interview. Dawn Sturgess sprayed the odd-smelling substance onto herself shortly before displaying symptoms of nerve agent poisoning, according to Matthew Rowley, the brother of Sturgess's partner.See the rest of the story at Business InsiderNOW WATCH: I spent a day with Border Patrol agents at the US-Mexico borderSee Also:A Chinese woman who poured ink over a Xi Jinping poster has been missing for 2 weeks, and her father was reportedly detainedA small Japanese city is facing a ninja shortage — even with salaries as high as $85,000An empty wooden ship washed up in Japan — and it looks like another mysterious North Korean 'ghost ship'SEE ALSO: A British couple poisoned by a nerve agent are probably collateral damage from an earlier assassination attempt READ MORE: Salisbury residents are freaking out after a second nerve agent poisoning in just a few months
