Kids drank vape fluid

Pupils have fallen seriously ill after drinking potentially fatal “vaping fluid” at a Scottish school.

The rector of Dingwall Academy wrote to parents and carers following a number of incidents last week.

It is believed one pupil was taken to hospital by ambulance, with one councillor claiming a student had been left in a “paralysed state”.

The school has involved police and NHS Highland health protection experts, with pupils being warned of the dangers of drinking the toxic contents of cigarette substitutes.

Alarmed councillors have praised the actions of the school in attempting to combat the issue, but admitted they are shocked.
