Lifesaving Narcan
The Lynchburg Police Foundation and the Lynchburg Health Department help equip our officers with lifesaving Narcan medication that can revive someone experiencing a drug overdose.
Since the start of this program, there have been 48 lives saved right here in Lynchburg!
“On November 15, Officers responded to the 1100 block of Rivermont Avenue for a reported overdose. Officers Donellan and Ruble located an unresponsive adult male (unconscious and not breathing) and administered two doses of Narcan.
