Nine third graders ingested a “foreign liquid substance” at an Atlanta school Wednesday, causing several of them to feel ill, the school district said.
Two of the sick students at Hollis Innovation Academy were taken to the hospital and the others were released to their parents. They had stomach pain, dizziness and nausea, Atlanta Public Schools said in a statement to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
The students began to complain of illnesses around 12:30 p.m. at the charter school in northwest Atlanta.
