The fentanyl epidemic is growing in Sonoma County. The Sonoma County Department of Health Services says fentanyl-related deaths went up by an astonishing two-thousand-550-percent between 2017 and 2021.

Santa Rosa police sergeant Kevin Naugle tells the Press Democrat the fentanyl his officers are seeing is coming from San Francisco and Oakland.
