San Diego Bus Drivers May Have Fallen Ill From Eating Drug-Laced Goodies

Four San Diego County bus drivers may have fallen ill from eating drug-laced goodies provided by a fellow worker.

KGTV-TV reports the Metropolitan Transportation System drivers complained of dizziness while driving on Sunday. They had to pull over and were replaced.

The TV station says MTS head Paul Jablonski sent a memo to transit board members Wednesday indicating the illness was caused by baked goods provided by a fellow worker.

The memo doesn’t say what might have been in the goodies but it does say the bus drivers were on leave pending drug testing.
