CENTERBURG — Three Centerburg area youths reportedly became ill after smoking Spice on the Heart of Ohio Trail on Thursday.

A 9-1-1 call reported six teenagers were smoking the illegal substance and felt ill. The caller also reported a male juvenile had fallen off a bridge and a third friend was trying to pull him out of the water.

The injured male was taken to a Columbus hospital by MedFlight because of head injuries.

Central Ohio Joint Fire District transported two of the youths to unknown hospitals.

The youths ranged in age from 16 to 18.

Details were not available as to who was transported to which hospitals or their current conditions.

No charges have been filed; however, the incident remains under investigation.
