Authorities Say They Treat Four Partygoers In Santa Barbara County For Drug Overdoses

Sheriff’s deputies, and paramedics called to a post wedding celebration in Santa Barbara County say they had to use a special medication to help four people who were overdosing on opiods.

Public safety workers were called to a home on the 2800 block of Exeter Place in unincorporated Santa Barbara early Sunday  morning.

Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s deputies say they found a man, and a woman weren’t breathing. They administered NARCAN, a drug which counters the impacts of opiods. Two additional people starting to show symptoms of a drug overdose were also treated.
