FLAKKA, New Deadly Drug In NEO

We've already got the standards to worry about. Then this past summer we were introduced to fantanyl and carfetanil. Now, after some popularity in Florida and other places across the U.S., Northeast Ohio has another drug showing up on the streets; FLAKKA.

Medway DEA and Wooster Police seized 2 ouncese of the substance that was being delivered through the mail to a Wooster home. FLAKKA is chemically similar to bath salts, and can be snorted, smoked, or even injected. Side effects have been described as “excited delirium” that involves hyperstimulation, paranoia and hallucinations that can lead to violent aggression and self-injury. 

No suspect information from the bust that happened January 11th in Wooster. Police say they'll release more information later.
