The Salina Police Department (SPD) is investigating a medical incident that occurred at South High School on Tuesday, resulting in two male students, ages 14 and 16, being transported to the hospital.&nbsp;

According to SPD Cpt. James Feldman, officers were called to the school at approximately 11 a.m. on Nov. 12 after two students began experiencing elevated heart rates and chest pain while on school property. The high school resource officer and EMS responded, and the students were taken to Salina Regional Health Center for further evaluation.

The cause of the medical incident remains unknown. Feldman addressed rumors circulating online about a possible fentanyl connection, saying that the claims are premature and not based in fact.

“We cannot confirm anything until we receive more medical information,” Feldman said.&nbsp;

The investigation is ongoing, with officers working alongside the school to determine what led to the incident. SPD did not share any additional details about the students’ conditions.&nbsp;

Salina Post will update this story as new information becomes available.&nbsp;
