Scarborough, Maine (WMTV/CNN/CNN Newsource/WKRC) – Almost a dozen land students were admitted to the hospital due to a suspected gas leak.

Almost a dozen elementary school students were taken to the hospital on Thursday after getting sick at school. Firefighters said that the crews had replied to calls from a possible gas leak after some students who had a concert in the cafeteria had felt sick.

School officials reported that a student passed out and others complain about the distress of the respiratory tract. An incident with mass casual was explained, so that first aiders could demand additional help. The school was evacuated and 11 students were taken to the hospital for further evaluation.

The air quality knives found no evidence of a gas leak and the students were allowed to return to school. The cause of the incident is examined.
