HAMILTON, N.J. -

Officials say at least two students at a Mercer County high school were hospitalized with MRSA.

The health scare is Steinert High School in Hamilton.

Of course, MRSA is a staph infection that doesn't respond to antibiotics, and could be deadly.

Officials say they cleaned the school's locker rooms over the weekend, and they're working closely with state and local health departments.
