Easton PTA, police participate in opiate addiction forum

Easton Police will be represented at a forum tonight hosted by the Easton PTA about drug addiction and opiates.  A panel including Easton Police Chief Tim Shaw, State Senator Tony Hwang, counselors and local Drug Enforcement Administration representatives will lead the discussion.  Officials says most first time abusers of painkillers usually obtain them from their own prescription, from a friend or relative.  There were 304 opiate-related overdose deaths in Connecticut in 2012.  Last year there were 673.  The forum tonight is at Helen Keller Middle School's media center at 7pm.
