The Kansas Bureau of Investigation and the Kansas Highway Patrol announces a newly formed task force.

The Joint Fentanyl Impact Team made its first major seizure of fentanyl pills. On Monday, a JFIT investigation into suspicious activity led to the seizure of an estimated 25,000 counterfeit oxycodone pills, commonly referred to as dirty 30s. The pills are suspected to contain fentanyl, and in total weighed approximately 11 ½ pounds.

The seizure occurred in Wichita. A 27-year-old male was detained and questioned. He was later arrested on outstanding warrants and booked into the Sedgwick County Jail. Charges related to the fentanyl seizure are pending. The investigation is ongoing.
