Two teenage boys were arrested in connection with a 15-year-old girl's drug overdose death at a Hollywood high school, Los Angeles Police said.
HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - A 15-year-old boy was arrested Thursday on suspicion of manslaughter for allegedly selling a fentanyl-laced drug to a pair of Los Angeles high school students -- one of whom died -- while a 16-year-old boy was arrested for allegedly peddling drugs to a third student at a nearby park.
Neither suspect was identified due to their ages. Moore said there were four victims who suffered overdoses from a series of related drug sales -- which date back to Aug. 26 -- though the fourth victim was given Narcan and has not come forward. He added that the arrests happened swiftly because the surviving 15-year-old girl was able to help police identify who she purchased the drugs from.
"We want to go up that chain, and anybody that's involved in the distribution of this, the manufacturing of this," Garcetti said."Those who are enabling the dealers that allowed this to happen: This will not end well for you." Investigators subsequently learned of possibly two other overdoses involving students that occurred at nearby Lexington Park on Tuesday night. Police said one of those victims apparently received the anti-overdose medication Narcan at the scene and left, and has not come forward to police or been identified.
