Football Players ‘Deliberately Put Peanuts In Severely Allergic Teammate’s Locker’ In Heartbreaking Incident

Teen football players are under fire after they ‘deliberately put peanuts into an allergic teammate’s locker.’

Carter Mannon’s peanut allergy was diagnosed at just nine months old.

By exercising caution, he’s been able to live a normal life, even making it onto the Varsity football team at Lake Travis High School, Texas.

However, according to Mannon’s mum, his teammates took advantage of their knowledge of his allergy, filling his locker with peanuts that could kill him.

Recalling the moment her son’s allergy became apparent, Shawna Mannon, tells People: “We had him sitting on the counter, and my husband was making a peanut butter sandwich right next to him. Carter reached his hand inside of the peanut butter jar and he ended up smearing it on himself.

“He broke out in hives right away – it was a perfect handprint of hives. And that’s when we realized, ‘Oh, he must be allergic.’”

His allergy was extreme and well-documented at his school.

In fact, he’d suffered during a prior incident when he accidentally ate a contaminated cookie, resulting in two doses of his EpiPen and a trip to hospital.

As per Mayo Clinic: “Anaphylaxis is a severe, life-threatening allergic reaction. In anaphylaxis, the immune system releases a flood of chemicals that can cause the body to go into shock. Blood pressure drops suddenly, and the airways narrow, blocking your breathing. The pulse may be fast and weak, and you may have a skin rash. You may also get nauseous and vomit.

“Anaphylaxis needs to be treated right away with an injection of epinephrine. If it isn’t treated right away, it can be deadly.”

After this scare, Mannon faced another dangerous incident – and this time, his mum claims it was no accident.

She alleges that Mannon’s teammates decided to play a potentially deadly ‘prank’ on their highly allergic teammate.
