Montgomery Blair students rushed to hospital after eating pot-laced brownies at school

Eighteen months after Montgomery County leaders weakened marijuana laws, the drug is finding itself frequently in crime headlines in Bethesda, Rockville, and now Silver Spring. A Montgomery Blair High School student is under arrest, and two of his classmates were rushed to the hospital, after they consumed pot-laced brownies he sold them, police allege.

Montgomery County Police say William Conrad Keysar, 18, of the 2000 block of Queensguard Road in Silver Spring, has been charged with distribution of a controlled dangerous substance on school property. The police were contacted after a school resource police officer was alerted to the two girls' condition, which included an elevated heart rate.

In total, Keysar was charged with two counts of distribution of a controlled dangerous substance, and two counts of distribution of a controlled dangerous substance on school property.

The girls were released from the hospital the same day.
