Heroin

This up close and personal look at Mainers hooked on heroin in Washington County will give you a whole new perspective on the ongoing opioid crisis.

A 29-year-old Ashland man has been indicted for trafficking in heroin in connection with a drug overdose death in Mapleton last fall.

A shocking new poll reveals that 6 in 10 Mainers say that they know someone who has either used heroin or abused prescribed opiate painkillers within the past five years. I on the other hand right here in the Bangor area I know 4 people within my group of friends affected by opiates including three that have had that person pass away.

Portland is hoping these boxes will keep used needles out of city parks.

Guess where he hid the dope...
