OVERDOSE WARNING from SPD, Monday, May 18, 2026:

SPD is investigating a fatal overdose that occurred over the weekend. Additionally, law enforcement partners in other jurisdictions have reported an uptick in overdoses recently. This spike in overdoses could indicate the presence of an unusually potent batch of drugs (likely fentanyl) being distributed locally. While fentanyl is suspected, it is not confirmed at this time as the investigation is ongoing.

Please remember to take precautions:
--Call 911 immediately if you suspect an overdose.
--Access free fentanyl test strip kits and Narcan available at Somerville Public Libraries (somervillepubliclibrary.org) and also from 24/7 health vending machines located outside the West Branch Library (40 College Ave) and Project Soup (165 Broadway).
--Find local recovery services and supports by visiting Somerville Hub at somervillehub.org (search on Recovery).
