From the beginning of 2023 up until the first week of March, there were 96 overdoses and eleven related deaths in the town of 68,000.<\/p>\n<h3>Fentanyl Bust in Portland<\/h3>\n<p>In April, Portland police made a fentanyl bust, seizing 137 grams of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/greg-abbott-issues-disaster-declaration-amid-immigration-crisis-blasts-bidens-open-border-policies\/\" title=\"Greg Abbott Issues Disaster Declaration Amid Immigration Crisis, Blasts Biden\u2019s \u2018Open-Border Policies\u2019\">deadly drug<\/a>.
