Kyle Police made 2 arrests after 3 fentanyl poisonings and 1 death [Video]

KYLE, Texas (KXAN) – The Kyle Police Department said it responded to three fentanyl poisonings on Saturday, resulting in one death.

The three people who were poisoned were between the ages of 18 and 19. The department said one teenager died and the other two are stable. It said two arrests were made in connection with the incident.

“It is Fentanyl Awareness Month, and I think this [incident] makes it more indicative that we need to continuously put information out there and education out there [about fentanyl],” said Ashlee Bradshaw, a community engagement specialist with KPD.

In a Facebook post, the department urged people to be wary of fentanyl-laced pills, which drug dealers might claim to be the pain reliever Percocet. It said the fentanyl-laced pill will often have “M” and “30” stamped into it. Fentanyl can also be found in other counterfeit, illegal substances.
