Ayrshire police officers are set to start carrying Naloxone in a bid to halt devastating drug overdose deaths.
A total of 500 life-saving intra-nasal sprays are to be dished out to cops up to and including the rank of inspector across the region for use in potentially life-threatening overdose situations.
This is the first time Ayrshire officers have received the kit and those issued with the medicine will undertake online training before receiving equipment to carry while on duty.
