Montville Police Officers Will Soon Carry Narcan
Montville police officers will soon carry Narcan once a policy has been approved.

MONTVILLE, CT - Montville police officers will soon be equipped with Narcan once a policy 12 months in the making has been approved, as reported by the New London Day.
The proposal comes a year after Montville police said they would start supplying officers with the opioid overdose reversal drug, according to the New London Day. Officials have spent the last year drafting an outline of the policy.
The policy was initially delayed due to pushback from the department’s union, the New London Day reported. Union officials had concerns over officers taking on medical responsibilities.
