Last Friday, a 1-year-old child died after possibly consuming fentanyl at a daycare center in New York City.
Authorities investigating the opioid case found nearly two pounds of fentanyl worth about $7,000 at the Bronx daycare center.
The owner of the center, Grei Mendez, said she had no knowledge of the drugs but noted that Carlist Acevedo Brito, who rents one of her rooms in the apartment, may have been responsible.
A package containing several thousand dollars worth of fentanyl was discovered inside the New York City day care center where a 1-year-old child died from a toxic opioid exposure last week, police and city officials said.
