Medgar Evers Middle and High School in Crown Heights was the scene of an Axe spraying that made some students ill. 
Emergency crews went to a Brooklyn school to investigate a report of a hazardous smell — only to learn that someone released Axe body spray in a classroom.
The Department of Education said in a statement that Axe was sprayed around 1 p.m. on Wednesday in a room full of sixth-graders at Medgar Evers College Preparatory School.
“EMS transported eight students to the hospital, and parents of two students took them to their own doctors,” the statement said.
Officials at the school on Carroll St. in Crown Heights said disciplinary action is pending. There were no serious injuries.
