Four people were rendered unconscious outside an Anaheim apartment building Sunday morning when they apparently overdosed on drugs during a party.
The Anaheim Police Department received word of the emergency at 1:09 a.m. Sunday and rushed to a grassy area in front of 1559 Benmore Lane, Sgt. Armando Pardo told City News Service.
“It looks like it was an overdose,” Pardo said. “A white powdery substance.”
Paramedics and officers rendered aid to the patients and they were rushed to hospitals, he said.
Their ages, genders and conditions were not available.
Because the white powder was not identified, a large perimeter was cordoned off and a hazardous materials crew was called to collect the substance and make sure the area was safe, Pardo said.
There were about 30 people at the party outside an apartment building, he said.
The investigation into the overdoses continued and no one was arrested, Pardo said.
