USA. US child dies from fentanyl kept under nursery nap mat

The fentanyl that killed a one-year-old child at a nursery in New York City was hidden in the nap room under a mat as he slept, police say.

Nicholas Dominici, who had been at the nursery for just a week, died of a suspected drug overdose on Friday.

Three other children were admitted to hospital after being exposed to the powerful narcotic at the daycare centre in the Bronx. 

Drug conspiracy and murder charges have been filed against two people. 

Police believe the children, ranging in age from eight months to two years old, inhaled fentanyl at the nursery. (BBC, UK, 20.092023)
