Pa. students violently ill after lunch at school

MILROY, Pa. (AP) — More than two dozen children became violently ill after lunch at a central Pennsylvania school.

Mifflin County schools Superintendent David Runk says 28 students at Armagh Elementary School suffered nausea, vomiting and diarrhea after eating lunch on Thursday.

Runk says the state Department of Health will analyze the food served to the children to determine what might have caused the sickness.

Several students were taken by their parents to the Lewistown hospital emergency room for treatment.

The school in Milroy is about 50 miles northwest of Harrisburg.
