Suffolk police said they believed the four victims did not realize they were smoking crack cocaine laced with a heavy dose of fentanyl. Two people have been arrested in the case. The Long Island Council on Alcoholism & Drug Dependence put out a “buyer’s beware notice” to the community to warn potential users about the potentially fatal bad batch of drugs.
