Mt. Rainier student to ER

A Mount Rainier High School student was treated at Highline Medical Center last week after overdosing on Dramamine.

Highline School District spokeswoman Catherine Carbone Rogers said the girl, who recovered, started having seizures at school.

Medics at the school treated three other girls after showing symptoms of overdosing on the common drug for motion sickness.

The school sent a letter home to parents warning of the risks of over-the-counter drugs.

Baggage handlers arrested

Officials at Sea-Tac International Airport last week were seeking additional airline passengers who may have had belongings stolen from their luggage recently.

Port of Seattle detectives arrested two baggage handlers following an investigation for allegedly stealing from checked luggage.

One allegedly was taking cigarettes and other items he thought he could sell, Port officials said. The other allegedly stole and then used a credit card.

Both suspects were identified as 22-year-old men who work for Menzies Aviation, which handles ground services for Alaska Airlines.

Menzies and Alaska Airlines said they have a zero-tolerance policy in dealing with theft and will continue to work with the Port police on the issue.

People, who believe their items were stolen at Sea-Tac, and who have not yet reported the theft to police, should call the airport at 206-433-5400.
