Fayetteville, N.C. — A Fayetteville teen was arrested Thursday and accused of spiking her grandmother's Easter dinner with insecticide, according to an arrest warrant.

Tyt'ana Lisa-Nicole Johnson, 17, of 206 Harrison St., was charged with two counts of attempted first-degree murder. She was being held Friday in the Cumberland County jail under a $500,000 bond.

According to a warrant, Johnson tried to kill Gaylon Moody on Sunday by pouring insecticide and termite killer into a pot of collard greens cooking on the stove, knowing that Moody planned to eat them.

Moody said it was payback after she confiscated her granddaughter's cellphone for a week.

"She said, 'Mr. Evans, I didn’t mean to make you sick. I was trying to get back at grandma,'" Evans said. "They got her locked up, but she needs help. Seriously, something's wrong with her. People don’t do that over cellphones."

Moody and Evans were able to laugh at the episode on Friday, noting that Evans enjoyed the collards so much he grabbed a second helping.

"That was good. I was loving it," he said. "Even with the stuff on it."

Johnson, a junior and an honor roll student at Terry Sanford High School, was ordered to stay away from Moody and Evens if she posts bond. She would go into the custody of the Cumberland County Department of Social Services.

No - hey you is how I greet my friends. I was wondering how you pronounce Tyt’ana. Isn’t there an old, old, old English rule about changing y to i and adding ies?

Poisoning collard greens is really “adding injury to insult”. It’s like poisoning somebody’s citrate of magnesium or horehound cordial.

I’ve always heard/seen “poke” as well—actually, from looking it up just now—it’s both. Either is correct.

I've had collard greens, and adding poison sounds like an improvement. Apparently he agrees.
