Motor vehicle stop by HPD Street Crimes Unit leads to impressive seizure. 4,860 bags of #fentanyl & 90 grams unpackaged fentanyl. If you don’t think that fatal overdoses would have likely come from this being out on the streets, you are kidding yourself. -Lt. PC #citycops pic.twitter.com/JLGyfsKwUD
