Los Angeles apartment maintenance workers found dead after exposure to fentanyl in complex
The unit was abandoned and the pair were performing maintenance work inside. When the manager walked in, the two men were found unresponsive, the LAPD said.
A white substance was found in the vicinity of the room and tested positive for fentanyl, the LAPD said. No arrests have been made and an investigation is ongoing.
Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is 80-100 times stronger than morphine and is often added to heroin to increase its potency, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration.
Be careful out there! Just had some Ts skip out and I remembered seeing acetone, labware and lots of cannabis by the stove. After some research, realized they were distilling THC extract with acetone - a highly flammable liquid by the stove. Which explains why they were always removing the smoke detectors . . .
