 The Red Lake Department of Safety has issued an urgent health notice for the reservation in the wake of a drug overdose on the reservation earlier this week. According to a press release from the police department, an overdose victim was dumped at the Red Lake hospital on either Monday or Tuesday. The White Earth Reservation issued a similar notice yesterday after authorities there responded to seven overdose calls in a period of 48 hours, including two that resulted in deaths. The Red Lake Police Department says their officers and first responders carry nalaxone, a drug that can reverse the effect of an opioid overdose and that the faster a person is treated with it, the better the chances they have of surviving an overdose.
