Three people are dead and more than a dozen first responders had to be quarantined and assessed for possible exposure to an unidentified substance after being called to a suspected drug overdose at a rural New Mexico home on Wednesday.
The fourth person inside the home was being treated at a hospital in Albuquerque. During the response, first responders were exposed to the substance and began experiencing symptoms including nausea and dizziness. Albuquerque Fire Rescue Hazmat teams were assisting at the scene in Mountainair, New Mexico, in efforts to identify the substance involved. Some residents, however, expressed frustration about drug use in the community on social media.
