A chemical believed to be pepper spray was sprayed on Bus 202 this morning during the middle and high school route. School administrators contacted EMS and out of an abundance of caution it was advised that students be transported to Tift Regional Medical Center for evaluation. Schools are in the process of contacting parents of these students and requesting that they come to Tift Regional at this time. If you have not been contacted by the school and your middle or high school student rides this bus, please contact the school or meet your child at Tift Regional Medical Center. School administrators from Northeast Middle School and Tift County High School are currently on site at the hospital. This did not involve any students that ride the elementary school route.
