YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – The Yuma Police Department (YPD) said they’re teaming up with the Drug Enforcement Administration to host a National Drug Take Back event.
YPD said the event, taking place at YPD headquarters Saturday, October 24, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., gives “the public an opportunity to help prevent pill abuse and theft by safely disposing of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription medications.”
However, YPD said they do not accept syringes, sharps, liquid products or illegal drugs “due to the hazardous conditions they pose during the disposal process.”
The event is free and anonymous. To learn more about the upcoming event, read the press release below.
