A sergeant with the Harris County Sheriff's Office was hospitalized
Tuesday after coming in contact with a fentanyl-laced paper flyer,
authorities said.
The flyer was one of several placed on nearly
a dozen sheriff's office vehicles at HCSO's recruitment and criminal
investigations center at 601 Lockwood Drive in east Houston, according
to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.
At least one of the flyers tested positive
for fentanyl, a sometimes-deadly opioid. Other flyers, as well as the
sergeant herself, are being tested for fentanyl, as well.
