WILTON MANORS, Fla. — Police have made an arrest in connection with the fentanyl overdoses of a group of U.S. Military Academy cadets and others at a South Florida vacation home during spring break.
Wilton Manors police said six men and a woman overdosed on fentanyl-laced cocaine and were taken to hospitals.
Authorities said late Friday that they have made an arrest and continue the investigation.
Florida officials have only identified the patients as college students from the state of New York.
However, a statement from the U.S. Military Academy's public affairs office said five West Point cadets were involved.
Four of them were still hospitalized Saturday morning.
The U.S. Military Academy in West Point, New York, is one of the nation's five service academies for the undergraduate education and training of commissioned officers in the Armed Forces.
