Toddler found high on coke at pre-school
A toddler was treated by doctors after cocaine was found in her system.
The unidentified girl, who is between 18 and 24 months old, was taken to hospital after workers at her church pre-school noticed the girl acting strangely, in Jacksonville, Florida.
The teachers at Promise Land Pre-School at the First Baptist Church of Mandarin noticed that the girl wouldn't eat her food and was unsteady on her feet, according to a report from the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.
Both of the toddler's parents tested negative for the drug, and authorities couldn't link the drugs to the church either.
Up to 14 employees at the church were interviewed and screened for drugs, but all the results came back negative, said Rev Steve Newbill. 'They told us we're cleared,' he said.
The girl's parents said that when she went to school, she was fine, but the information from the case will still have to go to detectives that investigate child abuse, said Melissa Bujeda, the sheriff's spokesperson.
