PUYALLUP - Three junior high school girls in Puyallup were taken to hospitals to have their stomachs pumped after taking a combination of drugs and alcohol.

It was apparently their idea of a party for the last day of school before the holiday break at Aylen Junior High School.

Officials say the girls got together about 7:30 a.m. Friday, took the anti-depressant Zoloft and chased it with some vodka.

One girl told a teacher, and the school called medical help and the girls' parents.

All the girls were conscious and will be OK. They'll face discipline at school for violating drug policies.
