AN EASTLEIGH teenager, who had a brush with death after it's believed she was victim of a rogue batch of Ecstasy tablets, has been discharged from hospital.

There were fears for the 16-year-old's life after she was found slumped on a bench in the town centre.

It is believed that she had suffered an adverse reaction to the drug while on a night out with friends.

She was rushed to Southampton General Hospital where she was immediately put into intensive care.

Today a police spokesman said that the girl was no longer in hospital and had been sent home.

He said: "It is likely to be another couple of days before she fully recovers."

Meanwhile investigations are continuing into the drugs drama which happened just after midnight on Saturday night.

A 16-year-old boy from Eastleigh was arrested on suspicion of supplying a Class A drug. He was bailed for further inquires and will return to Eastleigh police station on August 15.

Anyone with any information about this incident should contact Eastleigh CID on 0845 0454545 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
