A Harlem boy was taken to the hospital this February after a classmate gave him antipsychotic medication claiming it was candy, a lawsuit filed by the boy’s parents alleges.

The New York Post reported that the 11-year-old victim “was barely conscious [and] his eyes were rolling back into his head,” by the time his mother got to the school, Harlem Children’s Zone Promise Academy, according to court papers.
