The parents of a 2-year-old in Northern California were arrested this week after the child allegedly ingested fentanyl while in their care, authorities in Butte County said.
The parents, both in their early 20s, had taken their child to a location on Concow Road to be treated by California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection personnel Monday after reporting that the child had ingested “an unknown substance while in the care of someone else,” according to the Butte Interagency Narcotics Task Force.
Cal Fire personnel requested that Butte County sheriff’s deputies respond to the scene.
