Heroin Horror Stories

Chill Oneonta Council

Experts in Otsego County's heroin plague told chilling stories – in one case, a dead overdosed addict was abandoned in Fox Hospital's ER – to Oneonta Common Council last night. Read details in today's Hometown Oneonta, (which is available in Cooperstown at 21 Railroad Ave., the newspapers' office). The session was the first in Mayor Gary Herzig's effort to educate himself and new Council members on the challenge, so they can come up with a united concept on how to attack it. In the wings is whether Oneonta will participate in PAARI, a national program being pioneered locally by Cooperstown Police Chief Mike Covert. Lots more – after Islamberg, a visit to the 911 Center, photos of SUN Oneonta's graduation – is this week's newspapers.
