New Drug Of Choice

Operation UNITE officials say meth labs are down by 13 percent statewide in the past year, but Dan Smoot of Operation UNITE says there could be a new "trendy" drug in the region. That drug is heroin. Smoot says the origin of such drugs is outside of the U.S. border, such as Mexico, and once they make it inside, it goes in every conceivable direction, making it hard to track. Smoot says most of the black tar heroin they had seen had come out of Michigan or Ohio.
