BOSTON — More than 20 Boston College students, including at least eight members of the men's basketball team, complained of gastrointestinal symptoms after eating at a Chipotle restaurant, school officials said Monday.
It was not immediately known if the illnesses were part of a national outbreak of E. coli that has been linked to the Denver-based chain.
Boston College said several students came to the school's Health Services center and the "common factor" was that all had eaten at the Chipotle restaurant in the Cleveland Circle neighborhood near the BC campus.
The school said it notified the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, which is investigating.
