A British woman died on Sunday after being exposed to the nerve agent Novichok.

That's the same substance that struck an ex-Russian spy in March.

44-year-old Dawn Sturgess was a mother of three and was exposed to the poison in western England a little more than a week ago.

Police say the death is being treated as a murder.
