Suspected drug OD kills 3, hospitalizes 4 in Pittsburgh
By   Allen Cone

Sept. 22 (UPI) -- Three men died and four others were hospitalized -- all wearing orange paper wristbands -- after a "medical situation" that is suspected to be a drug overdose in Pittsburgh early Sunday, officials said.

The victims apparently were at an undetermined venue together and then went to a second location at a private residence where they apparently overdosed on drugs, the city of Pittsburgh posted on its website.

The patients, all male middle-aged, were transported to University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Mercy, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported. Three of the victims were upgraded from serious to stable condition, and one remains in critical condition, KDKA-TV reported.
