220 youngsters fall ill from Children's Day party

None

Mexican authorities say a festival celebrating Children's Day went badly wrong and more than 200 youngsters were sickened after eating apparently rotten food in a village near the Pacific resort of Acapulco.

 

Guerrero state Health Secretary Lazaro Mazon Alonso says the party was held Friday at a school in Organos village and people began showing up at hospitals the next day for treatment of food poisoning. (AP)
