California Highway Patrol confiscated 4.2 kilograms of fentanyl in San Francisco since May 1. Gov. GavinNewsom said Thursday that the supply was enough to kill the entire city three times over, amounting to 2.1 million two-milligram fatal doses.
Gov. Gavin Newsom said Thursday that the supply was enough to kill the entire city's population three times over, amounting to 2.1 million two-milligram fatal doses. Officers found the drugs in the city's Tenderloin neighborhood and in the surrounding areas.
“I’m proud of the CHP and CalGuard’s lifesaving efforts to shut down the Tenderloin’s poison pipeline and hold drug traffickers accountable," Newsom said in a statement."These early results show promise and serve as a call to action: We must do more to clean up San Francisco’s streets, help those struggling with substance use, and eradicate fentanyl from our neighborhoods.”
Meanwhile, a poll reported that 77% of San Francisco residents think that the city is on the wrong track, similar to last year’s results. That number is 30 points higher than it was in 2019.This is the latest effort from Newsom's joint public safety operation in San Francisco between multiple agencies such as CHP, CalGuard, the California Department of Justice, the San Francisco Police Department, and the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office.
