TEENS EAT TOXIC SEEDS

(Lima, OH) Four teenagers, students at Shawnee High School, consumed hallucinogenic and poisonous jimson weed Thursday night and were hospitalized with fast heartbeats and impaired vision. Two of the teens were on life support machines to help their breathing and sedated to prevent them from injuring themselves.

The American Association of Poison Control Centers reported over a thousand jimson weed poisonings and one death in 2001.
