Officials are raising the alarm that children are being targeted by drug cartels ahead of the Halloween season after authorities discovered 15,000 fentanyl pills hidden in candy packaging in Connecticut.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced Friday that two Maryland men, Oscar Flores, 34, and Severe Alelar, 25, had been indicted on multiple charges for trafficking fentanyl.
The two men were arrested in Rock Hill on September 8 after they showed an undercover DEA agent a sample of their supply. The agent told the suspected drug traffickers that he needed to go to another location to pick up the money.
