Two people, in separate incidents, are dead after suspected use of fentanyl over the weekend.

“Each and every single one of these incidents should raise the eyebrow of every Winnipegger, every Manitoban,” Const. Jason Michalyshen said on Monday.

Michalyshen also stressed that the frequency of these deaths should not take away from how deadly this drug is.

“You know you’re not going to see [fentanyl], you’re not going to smell it, you’re not going to taste it,” he said. “If it’s contained within, it will kill you.”

On Nov. 20 around 12:30 p.m., Winnipeg police responded to the first incident at a hotel in the 200 block of McDermot Avenue.

Police said a 30-year-old Winnipeg man was found dead by staff.

Police found drugs and drug paraphernalia at the scene. 

Fentanyl is suspected, but the cause of death is not confirmed.

Police said the 30-year-old man stayed at the McDermot Ave. hotel periodically and was staying there with another individual.

Later Sunday night, at around 9:30 p.m., police and the Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service were called to a home in Richmond West where two men were reported to be in medical distress.

The men, 22 and 21, were taken to hospital.

The 22-year-old man died and the 21-year-old man remains in critical condition.

Police found illicit drugs in the home and suspect fentanyl may be involved, but more testing is needed before that can be confirmed.

"Based on the drugs and the nature of what we seized in the home all arrows point in that direction at this point."

Police said the two men involved were staying at the residence.

Other people were in the home at the time and were taken to a safe place because of concerns about exposure to the drug.

"It's quite clear what we're dealing with and the epidemic we're seeing in our community,” said Michalyshen.

He went on to say community members and emergency personnel are the ones left ‘picking up the pieces’ in incidents regarding fentanyl.

“This could potentially impact anyone at any time anywhere in the city,” Michalyshen stressed.

Police can't say whether users were knowingly taking fentanyl or whether it was a different drug-laced with fentanyl.

"I can't say for sure what was going on in the minds of individuals who were using drugs," Michalyshen said.

Police said marijuana has been sent to Health Canada for testing.

"We have not seen marijuana-laced with fentanyl."

Family members of both victims have been notified.
