Guyana: 3 school girls rushed to hospital after excessive marijuana & alcohol consumption

Three students in Guyana were rushed to a hospital after they suddenly started to feel unwell during their school. The school authorities immediately took medical support.

According to a senior health official, three schoolgirls were rushed to the Suddie Hospital on the Essequibo Coast after one of them smoked marijuana, and the other two drank alcohol.

The Anna Regina Secondary School pupils allegedly went to a nearby snack shop and became so drunk that the school's administration called in for medical assistance. They were subsequently taken to a hospital and admitted to the facility.

"One of the girls had smoked marijuana, and the other two had consumed alcohol," said a senior health official.

One of the females acknowledged smoking marijuana, while the other two admitted to consuming alcoholic beverages in their free time.

According to one of the females, the items were offered to them by a bus driver and a conductor, and they were disoriented as a result of the offer. As per parents, their kids went to the school but didn't show up at their classes, which raised the alarm. As per reports, the students were on their school premises. It is not clear as the shop that sells illicit items is in the school
