Authorities said multiple agencies responded to the deputy’s location and found him “weak and barely responsive.”
Assisting deputies immediately applied Narcan and the deputy was transported to the emergency room at East Alabama Medical Center, according to Lee County officials.The sheriff’s office said Green was also taken to the ER and was expected to be transported to Russell County upon release.
“Probabilities indicate that the deputy was exposed to the hazardous substance, likely Fentanyl, during the process of taking Green into custody,” said the Lee County Sheriff’s Office. “Fentanyl is a highly potent synthetic opioid illegally used recreationally by mixing with other drugs such as heroin, cocaine and methamphetamine. It can be neutralized by naloxone commonly known as Narcan.”
