Alaska: Children served floor sealant instead of milk at summer school programme

[RandySF]

A dozen children were served floor sealant instead of milk at a day care summer programme at a school in Alaska.

Several students complained that their mouths and throats were burning shortly after being served breakfast on Tuesday, and at least one child was taken to hospital for treatment.

Police in the Alaskan state capital of Juneau are now investigating what happened, but officers do not believe "anything criminal" took place.

"We do want a thorough investigation of what happened, how it happened, and they're trained investigators," Superintendent Bridget Weiss said.

After the children complained the milk tasted bad, staff at Sitʼ Eeti Shaanax Glacier Valley Elementary School checked the container label.

"Staff immediately directed students to stop consuming the substance and removed it," the school district said in a statement.

4. If you read the news article about how both the milk and the sealant were packaged and....

....transported, it seems like it was probably human error, and not malicious. Unfortunate that it happened at any school, but I'm especially bothered by the fact that this was a tribal school.

5. Didn't even need to guess that it was a tribal school.

These kids were in fact poisoned, if they were white kids that would be the starting point. Ah Ho!
