The Camden City School District pulled all milk cartons from shelves amid an investigation.
Dozens of Camden students were sent to local hospitals after a “non-toxic consumable sanitizer” was discovered in milk cartons in at least two schools in the city, officials confirmed to NJ Advance Media on Wednesday afternoon.
According to school district spokeswoman Valerie Merritt, 33 students were sent to two area hospitals following the discovery of the colorless substance Wednesday morning.The report of a possible contaminant came into the Camden County Police Department at about 9:09 a.m. on Wednesday, said police spokesman Dan Keashen, noting that at least two schools were affected. It was not immediately known how the substance made its way into the cartons.
Students from Early Childhood Development Center were sent to Virtua Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital and students from Riletta T. Cream Elementary School — just over 2 miles away — were sent to Cooper Hospital after the substance was discovered. This morning we investigated a possible contamination of milk today at our Early Childhood Development Center. It was determined that the substance found in the cartons is a non-toxic consumable sanitizer that runs through the vendor machines prior to milk.School officials said 95 cartons of the Guida’s Dairy milk were pulled and 8 were contaminated with the substance, made by Vortexx. Neither the milk nor cleaning substance companies immediately provided comment after the incident.
