2 Die In Overdoses In Middletown Friday Morning

MIDDLETOWN, PA — Police in Middletown Township say two people died in separate overdose cases Friday morning.

In a social media post, police said it wasn't yet clear whether there is a bad batch of heroin or another drug circulating in the community or if the pair of deaths so soon together was just a coincidence.

Detectives were at both scenes Friday morning shortly before 10 a.m., police said in the post.

Patch has reached out to Middletown Township Police for details in the deaths and will update this story as more details become available.

"Now is as good a time as ever to remind everyone that if you have a loved one struggling with addiction, or know of someone who does, the Bucks County Drug and Alcohol Commission offers free Narcan and training on how to administer it," police said in the post. "All MTPD officers carry Narcan with them while on patrol."
