Massachusetts Firefighter’s Criticism of Narcan Prompts Investigation

A Weymouth firefighter is in hot water over a social media post attributed to him that called Narcan “the worst drug ever created” and suggested we should “let the shit bags die”.

The post goes on to imply that because the firefighter does not get “extra money” the policy should be “you use you lose”.

The authenticity of the post appears to remain in a question according to Wicked Local Weymouth, and the identity of the firefighter has not been officially released. However, here is a copy with the firefighter’s identify obscured.

For those not familiar with Narcan, it can be administered to those overdosing on heroin or similar opioid narcotics.
