Eleven members of an Amish family – including a one-year-old – were hospitalised in Pennsylvania Friday night after ingesting wild, "toxic mushrooms," local authorities said.A member of the family in south-eastern Pennsylvania's Peach Bottom Township told authorities they became sick after eating wild mushrooms that one of them "found in the woods … and brought home for dinner," Gregory Fantom, spokesperson for the Delta-Cardiff Volunteer Fire Company, said.The family member who reported the illnesses walked about 800 metres to a telephone booth to call 911, as the family is Amish and does not have a telephone, Fantom said Saturday.
