NARRATIVE OF INCIDENT:
Recently, K9 Cash and his partner seized roughly 1 pound of powdered fentanyl before it was able to reach Springfield’s streets. The fentanyl had been concealed inside of a children’s toy.

As little as 2 milligrams of fentanyl is considered a lethal dose, so their work prevented countless possible overdoses and deaths. The estimated street value of the powdered fentanyl is nearly $50,000.

K9 Cash, his partner, and the entire Springfield Police Department work tirelessly to prevent the distribution of these dangerous substances within our community.
