Gummies that had Delta-8 and Delta-9 THC were brought to Lakeshore Middle School Thursday, the Iredell County Sheriff’s Office said.

Paramedics were called to the school to evaluate the children who ate them. They were OK.

The student who brought the gummies to school will be charged and face disciplinary action.

Delta-8 is legal in North Carolina if it is derived from hemp and not marijuana, the sheriff said.

Delta-9 is illegal.
