About 1:50 p.m., paramedics responded to the school at 7525 S. Harvard Ave. and took six children about 9 to 10 years old to area hospitals for "drug-related reasons," according to a spokesperson with the Chicago Fire Department. A police source told ABC7 that they were called to the school after five students aged 9 and 10 were observed "laughing uncontrollably" after ingesting marijuana from a vape pen. A police source said they may have picked up a vape pen on a field trip Tuesday, and one student brought it to school today and shared it with four friends.
Two of the children were taken to St. Bernard and three were taken to Comer Children's Hospital to be checked out. The source said they were OK and able to climb into the ambulances on their own. They are in good condition, the police source said.Related Topics
