In a freak accident, a 13-year-old boy from London died after a student at his school threw a slice of cheese at him, say reports. An inquest was told that the boy went from “absolutely fine” to unconscious in 10 minutes. The boy suffered from severe dairy allergies.

A report by The Guardian says, Karanbir Singh Cheema, had a serious reaction after another student flicked a slice of cheese the size of half a post-it at him; the cheese hit Cheema on his neck. He was given the drug, Piriton but stopped breathing shortly after the paramedics arrived.
