Several middle school students in Mississippi were hospitalized after consuming edibles that were reportedly handed out by a fellow student. The incident took place at Bettie E Woolfolk Middle School, with six students being taken to Baptist Memorial Hospital in Yazoo for treatment. Two students were released while the others are expected to be released soon.
The Yazoo Police Chief Terry Gann mentioned that the investigation is ongoing, and charges are likely to be filed against the student who distributed the edibles. The parents of the child might also face charges if found to be involved. The Mississippi Achievement School District, to which the middle school belongs, issued a statement emphasizing the commitment to the safety and well-being of the students. The incident highlights the importance of educating families about the risks of seemingly harmless products like edibles.
This incident adds to the growing concerns about students consuming THC-infused products on school premises. Earlier this month, a similar incident took place at William Floyd Middle School in New York, where nearly a dozen students were hospitalized after consuming THC gummies. Authorities are working to address the issue and ensure the safety of students in schools. Awareness and education about the dangers of such products remain crucial to prevent future incidents.
