A 2-year-old has tested positive for Fentanyl after being found during a large drug bust in North Carolina.
The shocking result comes days after the toddler was rescued during a drug bust organized by 115 law enforcement officers and 17 agencies on the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians in North Carolina on June 2, authorities confirmed in a press release, CBS reports.
Referred to as “Operation Casino Royale” — drugs including fentanyl and cocaine were also uncovered in the bust with the use of a search warrant. Following the child’s rescue, they were sent to hospital for "evaluation and monitoring,” per CBS.
As a result of the drug bust, 98 arrests were made, ABC 13 reports. One person was also found dead of an overdose at the time.
