Amory Police Department work to combat the rise of Fentanyl
SUMMARY: Fentanyl’s growing popularity and use in Amory, Mississippi has prompted local law enforcement to initiate a 10-month-long investigation to combat the rise of related overdoses and get the drug off the streets. Law enforcement officials have arrested two people involved in selling and trafficking Fentanyl. The drug’s accessibility and dangerous nature has made it increasingly popular with young people. The ongoing investigation has required significant time and effort from investigators and surrounding agencies, but has resulted in arrests and seizures of Fentanyl. These efforts are aimed at saving lives and helping those struggling with addiction. More arrests are expected as the investigation continues.
