A 13-year-old boy brought balloons full of cocaine to his school Friday, resulting in medical exams for a group of his schoolmates, police said. School officials assumed the white powdery substance inside the balloons was flour, but as a precaution called authorities around 8:30 a.m., Sheriff’s Lt. Kevin Kemmerling said. “The deflated balloons, similar to drug bindle packaging, had a white powdery substance inside and outside the packaging,” the Tulare County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement. In all, 13 kids were exposed to the drug, and transported to a hospital 9 miles away, officials said. Upon hearing the news, parents flocked to the school to ensure their children’s safety, the Times Delta reported.
