A 14-month-old boy nearly died
at Cerignola near Foggia after eating a piece of hashish he
thought was chocolate, sources said.
The boy ate the drug and was rushed to Cerignola hospital
with breathing difficulties last Wednesday, they said.
Given the seriousness of the case he was taken to Foggia's
Ospedali Riuniti where he is now out of danger.
The boy tested positive for the active ingredient in
cannabis, hospital sources said.
"He is out of danger," they said.
His parents have been placed under investigation for drugs
possession, judicial sources said.
