HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Twenty-two high school students had to be taken to the hospital because of a mysterious illness Friday night during a game between Austin High School and Yates High School.
The source of the illness has yet to be pinpointed, but doctors say it's entirely possible this is carbon monoxide poisoning.
At least one of the 22 Austin High School students who suddenly became sick was diagnosed and treated for carbon monoxide poisoning.
"They call carbon monoxide the silent killer because it's odorless, tasteless, can't see it," said emergency medicine specialist Dr. Robert Szema with Memorial Hermann Hospital, Memorial City.
