Owen Sound Police have charged a Grey County resident with manslaughter in connection to an overdose death earlier this month.
On March 5, emergency services responded to a drug overdose at an apartment on the lower west side of the city.
The 37-year-old Owen Sound resident was transported to Brightshores Health Systems, where he was pronounced dead.
The Criminal Investigations Branch commenced an investigation which led to a 27-year-old man being arrested. He was charged with trafficking fentanyl and manslaughter.
The man was remanded into custody and will appear in court later this month.
The investigation is continuing and anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Constable Nick Houston at nhouston@owensoundpolice.com or 519-376-1234 ext. 177.
