NORTH ANDOVER (FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - The North Andover High School Junior Prom was shut down early on Friday night over concerns related to pot-laced brownies.

During the prom four students got sick, and it was discovered that they had eaten pot-laced brownies before leaving the high school for the prom, which was held in Atkinson, N.H.

Paramedics were called and three students to Lawrence General Hospital and were later released. Eleven students were eventually questioned about brownies.

As a result, the prom was shut down an hour early, at 10 p.m.

The school and some police officers determined that 19 brownies had been distributed by a student earlier in the day before arriving for the evening at the high school.

Superintendent Christopher Hottel said that disciplinary actions will likely be taken and that the North Andover Police are investigating.
