Nether Prov cops go 2-for-2 in Narcan saves

Police in Nether Providence are on a serious roll - although it's one they likely would rather not have to do.

For the second time in two days, township officers used Narcan to pull a victim from the throes of a potentially fatal heroin overdose. This is literally bringing people back from death's door.

You can get all the details here from reporter Rose Quinn, who also reports that at the same time police in Folcroft have made another arrest.

It only proves just how serious the heroin problem is, not only here in Delaware County, but across the country.

And it's why the folks in Washington need to get serious about funding some of the services needed to attack this epidemic. We address that on our editorial page today.
