03 Dec 2022

Southern California authorities said ten students were treated for a possible overdose at a middle school in the San Fernando Valley.

Paramedics with the Los Angeles Fire Department responded to Van Nuys Middle School just before 11:30 a.m. Thursday after receiving calls regarding students with medical complaints.

At least ten students were treated and seven of them were taken to the hospital. Officials said affected students showed mild to moderate symptoms, and they were released from the hospital by Thursday evening. Fire officials told reporters on the scene that the overdose does not involve fentanyl and that they believed it was a possible cannabis overdose.

“It was possibly an edible cannabis. [They were] lethargic as if we were seeing their faces looked a little glazed over,” a representative for the department said. The students were between the ages of 12 and 15 years old.

Several parents arrived on campus to pick up and check on their kids, but the campus remained open for the day, the Los Angeles Unified School District reported.
