Toledo police seizures of fentanyl sharply increased in the first quarter of this year compared to the same period in 2023. . Police seized 317.71 grams of fentanyl in January, February, and March last year. In the first quarter this year, the amount climbed to 2,806 grams of fentanyl. The seizures are from vehicles, investigations, and search warrants in houses. “Unfortunately, there’s a lot of fentanyl in the community,” Police Chief Mike Troendle said. “It’s being cut, for some reason now, and used in every other drug, like marijuana, cocaine, heroin — we’re finding a component of fentanyl in almost every other type of drug out there — even Ecstasy. It’s in easy supply right now, so it’s a good filler, it makes the drug stronger,” he said. Making matters worse, many users want drugs mixed with fentanyl even after hearing about overdoses.
