MONUMENT, Colo. (AP) — Two Monument middle school students are facing expulsion after one loaned the other her asthma inhaler because she thought the girl was having an attack.

Breana Crites says she was short of breath during a physical education class last week and thought the inhaler would help.

Alyssa McKinney says she didn't know Crites did not have a prescription for the medication.

According to KOAA-TV (http://bit.ly/ybmbDZ ), the nurse found out and both 8th graders were suspended for 10 days. They are also facing expulsion.
