Officials raced to a church in Cambridge, Massachusetts, outside Boston, after hearing reports of a child having a seizure on Monday evening.
When they arrived, they saw the child sitting on the front steps of St. Paul’s Parish, and the seizure had subsided, Cambridge Fire Chief Thomas Cahill told ABC affiliate WCVB.
But while firefighters assessed that child, seven other kids, all aged 11 to 13, started developing similar symptoms inside.
“They were all transported to hospitals around the Cambridge area,” Cahill said.
The children said that they were smelling an odor inside the church that made them feel sick during the performance.
Other adult attendees also reported noticing a mysterious smell.
