For the fourth time since Wichita police started carrying Narcan, officers have saved the life of a person overdosing on fentanyl. The department said on Facebook that an officer responded just after 12 a.m. Friday to an overdose call in the 400 block of S. Webb Rd. The officer got to the scene before EMS and found a 29-year-old man who said that he and a 26-year-old woman had taken fentanyl. The officer found the woman unresponsive and not breathing in a hotel room. The officer administered Narcan, saving the woman’s life. “The Wichita Police Department wants to remind everyone the dangers of illicit drug use,” WPD Facebook post says. “Especially regarding an increase of counterfeit fentanyl pills being brought into our community.”
