Heroin is a crisis in Maryland, and it only seems to be getting worse.
Now Anne Arundel County has more to worry about: carfentanil, a powerful tranquilizer used for elephants and rhinoceroses. Drug dealers are mixing carfentanil in heroin, and four people have died as a result -- three of those deaths were in Anne Arundel.
Now police are focusing on finding the drug dealers.
