CONCORD, N.C. -- A teenage girl left behind the medicine that may have saved her life. Doctors say the girl suffered from an allergic reaction to an ingredient in Chinese food.

Gina Marie Hunt died Saturday after eating lunch at the Concord Mills food court.

The girl's family told a local newspaper that Hunt had severe allergic reactions to peanuts. She could not even be around people who ate peanut butter.

Doctors say when Hunt accidentally ate something containing peanuts, she was nowhere near the one thing that could have saved her life.
