This is so scary. Earlier this week in Hopewell, Virginia, seven children, all under the age of eight, were found suffering effects of an apparent overdose after taking sleeping pills.
Even stranger, the pills were apparently handed out by a 7-year-old! According to local outlet WTVR-TV, authorities arrived at the apartment on Wednesday night to find four children, ages one, two, three, and four, unresponsive.
In another room, three other kids were awake but lethargic. They were all rushed to the hospital where they were treated for an overdose.
The three youngest kids are in serious condition while the other four are expected to be fine, per WRIC-TV.
