A 17-year-old boy from Frattamaggiore, Naples, is in critical condition after consuming a potent cannabis-based drug known online as 'miele da sballo' or 'honey of high'. Two other young men, aged 19 and 22, also fell ill but recovered.
A 17-year-old boy from Frattamaggiore, in the province of Naples, is in danger of life after consuming what is called 'miele da sballo' on the net, a very potent and dangerous concentrated cannabis-based drug.
The boy arrived at the hospital, along with two other young men aged 19 and 22, in severe respiratory distress. According to an initial reconstruction by the Carabinieri, the three, after gathering at the minor's home, consumed the drug, probably just a teaspoon, and immediately felt ill.
The minor's parents immediately called 118, which transferred the 17-year-old to the San Paolo Hospital in Naples, where he is under reserved prognosis and in danger of life. The other two boys are instead in a state of shock but have not suffered consequences. The jar containing the gelatinous drug was provided directly to the Carabinieri by the 17-year-old's father. From the initial checks carried out, the content of the jar - seized - tested positive for cannabinoids.
