WHAT-A-WORLD –
Aug. 9, 2024 – The baby began to cry after an EMT administered the opioid overdose reversal drug Narcan. Medical staff at St. Joseph’s Hospital told police later that the infant had Cannabis and Fentanyl in her system. Neither parent could tell police how the child came in contact with an opioid and both denied using the drug. Warren Police are working to find out what led to a seven-month-old child overdosing on the powerful opiate fentanyl. Officers performed life-saving measures on the baby girl late Monday after her mother told them that the child had gone limp as she held her in her arms at a home on Denison Drive NE. Police tried to revive the infant who had been placed on the trunk of a car parked in the driveway. EMTs arrived and took over life-saving efforts in the back of an ambulance.
