#hawaii opioid

With Halloween approaching, the Hawai’i Police Department is reminding the public to be aware of the dangers of fentanyl, which has been recovered by police during drug arrests across Hawaiʻi Island in recent months.

The plan is designed to sustain a system-wide, coordinated and proactive response to not only opioids, but also methamphetamine and other prevalent drugs.

Hawai‘i has joined a bipartisan coalition of states seeking documents and information today from manufacturers and distributors of prescription opioids.
