A bizarre story has emerged from West Florence High School in South Carolina, where a 32-year-old teaching assistant, Alexander Lewis, is charged with repeatedly using a commercially available “fart spray” designed to mimic the odor of feces, causing widespread disruption and health issues among students and staff.
According to CNN, between August 25 and September 19, 2025, the school community reported a persistent, foul odor that led to headaches, nausea, dizziness, and respiratory problems. One parent reported that the smell triggered their child’s asthma, necessitating three doctor visits.
