Murray Wood: Of Easter bunny bells and Juicy Fruit gum
For Murray Wood, Easter brings to mind grandma's practical advice about repurposing, and some of life's little lessons.
Fake Oxycontin is suspected in the death of a man whose body was found in a home south of Melfort last week.
RCMP were called to a home in the Pleasantdale district at 2:17 p.m. Friday where they found the body of a man.
No information has been released about the man’s age, or his name. However, Mounties say fake Oxycontin pills may be connected to the death.
Fake Oxycontin, or fentanyl, has been connected to several deaths in Saskatchewan over the past year including three in Saskatoon and one in Moose Jaw. Fentanyl pills were also seized as part of an investigation into a sudden death near Weyburn.
In a release, RCMP explained that Oxycontin is no longer being produced in Canada, and any pills being sold as Oxycontin should be considered fake and dangerous.
Although the RCMP has provided descriptions of the pills in the past, Mounties say dealers may alter the colour or appearance of the pills.
