Enough fentanyl to kill 32 million people seized in NYC drug bust

NEW YORK — Agents made a record fentanyl bust in New York and seized enough fentanyl to kill 32 million people, according to WPIX.

Officers seized nearly 270 pounds of fentanyl, heroin, and cocaine worth $30 million during separate busts, law enforcement officials said Monday. They also arrested four people.

“The sheer volume of fentanyl pouring into the city is shocking,” said Special Narcotics Prosecutor Bridget G. Brennan.

Investigators first recovered more than 140 pounds of fentanyl during a raid on a Kew Gardens apartment along with nearly 59 pounds of fentanyl mixed with other narcotics.

That's practically a national security threat.

They arrested Rogelio Alvarado-Robles and Blanca Flores-Solis in that bust.

Investigators also recovered 55 pounds of fentanyl and heroin in a September seizure in the Bronx. They took two people — Edwin Guzman, 35, and Manuel Rivera-Santana, 32 — into custody.

So, it looks to be coming from south of the border.  I know, I know: "what border?"

Even more scary because this stuff kills on skin contact or inhalation, and seems to be relatively easy to make.

140 lbs to kill 32M people is a ratio that an enterprising terrorist would find very appealing.
