15,000 “rainbow” fentanyl pills were seized during a major drug bust in Orange County, the sheriff’s department announced.
According to a series a tweets posted by the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, investigators executed search warrants at two locations in North Orange County.
During the search, they found two kilograms of fentanyl powder, 10 pounds of methamphetamine, and 15,000 multi-colored fentanyl pills – commonly known as “rainbow fentanyl.”
This marks the first time Orange County sheriff investigators have encountered “rainbow” fentanyl in their jurisdiction.
Law enforcement agencies have been warning the public about the dangers of fentanyl for years, but unfortunately, officials say those warnings appear to be going unheeded – especially among young people.
“Fentanyl poisoning is now the number one source of death for people between 18 and 45,” said Martin Estrada, the U.S. attorney for the Central District of California as he unveiled a new public service announcement called “Death in Disguise,” warning people about the dangers of fentanyl.
