3,000 pounds of dangerous drugs collected
The Westshore Enforcement Bureau Drug Task Force (WEBDTF) gratefully acknowledges the citizens of our six western suburbs for actively participating in the semi-annual collection event on Oct. 26, 2019, when 276 pounds of outdated and unwanted medications were collected for safe disposal.
In addition, our WEB communities' citizens were responsible for properly disposing of medications via the use of the 365/24/7 drop boxes located within each of the police department lobbies to the tune of 3,028 pounds through Nov. 30!
We wish to remind and urge our citizens to continue to make use of the drop boxes whenever the need arises to dispose of those expired or unwanted medications. This simple disposal method serves the purpose of protecting the environment and preventing the diversion of the pharmaceuticals for illegal activities.
WEBDTF will continue to offer this valuable serve to increase the safety and welfare of all Westshore families.
