Press release from Buncombe County Sheriff’s office:
Most abused prescription drugs come from family and friends. What is lurking in your cabinet?
In partnership with Substance Free Youth of Buncombe County, we have arranged 9 locations in which you can drop off unused and expired medications from 10am till 2pm this Saturday the 29th. Law Enforcement Officers are also located at these drop off locations and will transport the items to a facility for incineration.
Please read the flyer for locations, details on preparing medications and please share in an effort to keep these medications out of the wrong hands.
