SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department believes counterfeit blue pills have been the cause of several deaths in the county in the last 36 hours.
Deputies urge citizens not to take the unsafe drug.
According to the department, dealers promise a painkiller high, but no one knows what exactly is in the drug which makes it so dangerous.
