9 elementary school students sent to ER after inadvertently eating weed candy

Nine elementary school students were sent to a hospital Friday after eating marijuana-infused candy.

The students, all of whom were ages 10 to 12, attended Renaissance Charter School in Cooper City, Florida.

A student inadvertently brought in candy laced with THC, packaged almost identically to a common sour candy, then shared it with friends, school spokeswoman Colleen Reynolds told USA TODAY on Monday.

At around 1 p.m. Friday, some students complained of abdominal distress shortly after eating the edibles, Broward County Sheriff spokesman Michael Kane told USA TODAY. The injuries, he said, were not life-threatening.

The students – seven boys and two girls – were sent to an emergency room for observation "in an abundance of caution," Reynolds said.

They were released Friday after evaluation, Reynolds told USA TODAY.

Emergency medical services and law enforcement personnel were contacted as soon as the school caught wind of the students' consumption of the weed-laced candy.

Broward County Sheriff’s Sgt. Donald Prichard said no criminal charges were filed Friday, but the investigation is ongoing.

"This deceptive advertising package can put children at risk, and we want all parents to be aware of the potential impacts," Reynolds said in a statement.

^^^Same- a brownie was basically my one and only experience at Bonaroo 2006- ate the entire thing in less than a minute: terrible experience and ruined the rest of the festival for me. I can’t smoke it bc it’s too harsh and I’m not a fan of the smell so alcohol (mainly wine) has always been drug of choice ever since.
