Omaha Drug Overdoses Lead To Law Enforcement Urgency

The Omaha Division of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency joins local law enforcement in investigating two Omaha overdose deaths in two days.

Omaha D-E-A spokesperson Emily Murray tells 6 News that with a fentanyl surplus, it's mixing with some of the other drugs on the streets.

She says even the smallest amounts of fentanyl lacing a drug can be fatal.

For example, Murray says 10 grains of salt is similar to the amount of fentanyl that would be fatal.
