A teenager suffered a suspected heart attack after his testicles were squeezed in a schoolboy prank gone wrong.
The 17-year-old, from Artane in Dublin, is in a medically induced coma after passing out following the incident on Thursday, the Irish Mirror reports.
The St David’s CBS pupil was heading back to school after a lunch break when he began joking around with a group of boys.
One of the group is reported to have ‘jerked his scrotum’. A source close to the boy’s family believe it wasn’t done in a ‘malicious way’.
A school teacher and one of the group performed CPR at the scene while they waited for emergency services to arrive.
The boy is currently in a ‘stable condition’ and his family hopes there won’t be any permanent damage.
