The substances used by S.D. were purchased from Spain by another individual and sold to S.D. On August 24, 2018, West Seneca Police responded to a residence for a reported drug overdose. Upon arrival, an individual identified as S.C. was pronounced dead at the scene from an apparent drug overdose. The substances used by S.D. were purchased from Spain.
