New York City has been seeing an increase in fatal fentanyl overdoses and in the amount of illegal weapons coming into the city. Dan Krauth has the story.As New York City sees an increase in fatal fentanyl overdoses, prosecutors and detectives say they're also seeing an increase in the amount of illegal weapons coming into the city.
The special narcotics prosecutor said they're often finding illegal firearms along with the fentanyl when serving search warrants, something they haven't seen before. "Narcotic shootings for the year are up tremendously," said assistant chief Christopher McCormack. "Drug dealers are now carrying the guns on them when back in the day, they would have somebody else carrying the gun on him."
