Niños hospitalizados tras comer galletas con THC en escuela de Dunsmuir

Several children were hospitalized on Monday after consuming cookies laced with THC that had been left out at a school in Dunsmuir, a small city in Siskiyou County. The incident occurred at an undisclosed school, prompting an immediate response from emergency medical services.

According to local authorities, the cookies were inadvertently left accessible to students, leading to multiple children ingesting the cannabis-infused treats. First responders arrived at the scene and quickly assessed the affected children, who exhibited symptoms consistent with THC overdose, including dizziness, nausea, and altered mental states.

The children were transported to a nearby hospital for evaluation and treatment. As of the latest reports, all are in stable condition and expected to recover fully.

The Dunsmuir Police Department and Siskiyou County health officials have launched an investigation into how the cookies came to be on school grounds and who may be responsible. School administrators have sent a letter to parents informing them of the incident and urging vigilance.

This event has raised serious concerns about the safety of school environments and the potential for accidental exposure to cannabis products, especially as edibles become more common. Authorities are reminding the public to keep all cannabis-infused products securely stored and clearly labeled to prevent such incidents.

The investigation is ongoing, and further updates are expected as more details emerge.
