Community Prescription Drug Take-Back Day
The Campbell County Sheriff’s Office will host a no-questions-asked Community Drug Take Back event later this month.
The event will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 26 at the sheriff’s office, 600 W. Boxelder Road. Residents are invited to bring any unused, expired or unwanted medications from their homes to drop off, per the CCSO.
According to an April 2 release, thousands of people are sickened or die from accidental medication overdose. Criminals also gain access to homes to steal medications, and pets are not immune to medication overdose if they access unattended medicines within their reach.
Happening from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
