Regina Police is reporting three more deaths from overdoses in Regina.
Police attended to three separate scenes Monday morning where a 30-year-old man, 32-year-old man and 36-year-old man all died. The investigation has not yet connected these victims together, but they do believe fentanyl is involved in each of the deaths.
15 people have died from overdoses so far in Regina this month. In total, 92 people have died this year.
This huge challenge continues in our city. We are working vigorously with Sask Health and other human service providers to prevent deaths in our community but the odds of serious addiction are stacked against us. Please read this release to understand how you can help! https://t.co/U7ZCmZzo0H

RPS is reminding residents the Good Samaritan Overdose Act that protects anyone who is experiencing or who is with someone experiencing a drug overdose from controlled substance possession charges if 9-1-1 is called.
