Miami, FL - Law enforcement experts from the Miami Police Department are warning citizens to avoid getting shot after learning of deaths linked to fentanyl-coated bullets.

"I've been doing this job for six years and I thought I had seen it all," MPD Corporal Chad Blaze explained. "But when I started hearing about people being killed by the fentanyl from bullets...I couldn't believe it. First it was Halloween candy and now this? These dealers are sick people and it's a sick world. Just a sick world."
Miami police first suspected that bullets found inside of gunshot victims had been adulterated with fentanyl when blood collected during their hospitalization revealed traces of the terrifying drug. According to police toxicologist Mort Fishman, what started out as a hunch based on decades of experience has now been replicated several times. "A buddy of mine works at Ryder Trauma and he ran the first test on a patient recovering from a gunshot wound to the abdomen over in Allapattah. I think it should be a standard test and maybe Narcan should just be given to everyone who gets shot just to be safe."
