STONEHAM, MA — Three Stoneham High School students were hospitalized after a drinking party Friday night in town, according to Chief James McIntyre. Officers responded to the woods off Tedford Drive at approximately 9:30 p.m. for a person who needed medical attention, and found that a 15-year-old had been intoxicated to the point of needing to go to the hospital, according to McIntyre.
