During a recent field trip to the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles, a group of eight teenagers experienced a concerning incident that led to their hospitalization. The students, both male and female, became acutely ill after consuming marijuana edibles, prompting a swift response from on-site security and emergency services.
Upon discovery of the sickened students, a security officer acted promptly by contacting 911, leading to the arrival of LAFD paramedics who assessed the situation. The teenagers were found to have an altered level of consciousness due to the ingestion of cannabis-infused products.
Following the evaluation by paramedics, all eight teens were transported to nearby hospitals for further observation and care. Despite their fair condition upon transfer, the incident raised concerns about the circumstances surrounding the consumption of the edibles and the supervision during the field trip.
The exact school affiliation of the students remains undisclosed, adding a layer of mystery to the situation. Meanwhile, the La Brea Tar Pits management released a statement acknowledging the incident and clarifying that the symptoms experienced by the students were unrelated to their visit to the paleontological site. They expressed support for the affected individuals and their families, emphasizing a commitment to ensuring a safe and educational environment for all visitors.
