If this is an emergency call 911, you can save a life.
Tuesday, August 23, 2016
Aug. 23--When 1,000 people recently gathered downtown to raise awareness about the heroin epidemic, one of their chief demands was that Akron police -- in addition to paramedics -- begin carrying the heroin reversal drug naloxone.
That demand soon will be met.
Akron police supervisors went through training Monday morning in how to administer naloxone, which is marketed as Narcan. The supervisors will train the patrol officers on their shifts, with the goal of having Narcan in every cruiser by the end of this month.
