WPD: Up to 1 million suspected fentanyl pills taken off Wichita streets

WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) - The Wichita Police Department says its NIBN Enforcement Team has seized “a massive number of suspected fentanyl pills,” possibly up to one million, as part of an ongoing investigation.

“We’ve estimated - based on weight - the number of pills to be somewhere in the area of half a million to a million, which would make this the largest seizure of fentanyl for our agency to date and a record seizure nationwide,” the department wrote on social media.

WPD also said it has seized “close to (10) crime guns.”

No further details are being released due to the ongoing investigation.
