Fentanyl package found at New York daycare center where child died

Several thousand dollars' worth of synthetic opioid discovered in Bronx apartment where three other young children also sickened

A package containing several thousand dollars' worth of fentanyl was discovered inside the New York City daycare center where a one-year-old child died from a toxic opioid exposure last week, authorities said.

The owner of the daycare center, however, maintained she had no knowledge of the presence of the highly potent drug, which sickened three other young children, including an eight-month-old girl who tested positive for fentanyl.
