BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - A man has been arrested by the Erie County Sheriff's Office after undercover detectives bought pure fentanyl off him. Authorities say one dose would be fatal.

Detectives started investigating Angel Marcial when they started taking a closer look at people coming into Buffalo from the suburbs to buy heroin. The 20-year-old was arrested around 1:45 p.m. Friday on Niagara Street. Authorities say he tried to run from police when he saw officers approaching.

Undercover detectives had made two purchases of what they believed was heroin from Marcial, but one of the purchases was in fact 100 percent pure fentanyl, a substance 100 times more powerful than heroin.

Erie County Sheriff Tim Howard said, "Had a person used that drug dosage, it would have resulted in instant death."

Police agencies in Western New York have been warning about heroin laced with fentanyl for months. News 4 reported on the growing trend in June. In the last year, there have been several fatal overdoses.

Marcial is originally from Rochester, but has an Arthur Street address in the Queen City. Deputies seized 20g of suspected heroin, $4,600 in cash, a loaded semi-automatic handgun, and a scanner set to Buffalo Police Department presets from his home.

"If you bought drugs from this man, do not use them. If you use the drugs from this individual, your next dosage will very, very likely be your last," Sheriff Howard said.

Marcial is being held in the Erie County Holding Center on charges of two counts of criminal sale of a narcotic drug, two counts of criminal possession of a narcotic drug with intent to sell, and two counts of obstructing governmental administration and resisting arrest.

Deputies say additional charges are anticipated.

Motherfucker.

Motherfucker. PURE fentanyl?

I'd say my typical heroin shot is about 40-100 mg of powder (rough estimate, depending on where I buy it from). So what would be the effect of IVing a hundred mg of fentanyl?

Bufallans must be dropping like flies.

edit: I've never actually weighed my dope before shooting it, so my estimate may be off.
 
Yup. pretty crazy.

Probably the same effect as falling off a ladder onto concrete several stories below, e.g. sudden and rapid unconciousness with very low chances that it will be reversed in time.

At least you'd feel warm and fuzzy.
 
He probably will be. I would not be suprised if he ends up charged with full-blown murder if they find a single dead person!
 
That must have been the bomb while it lasted...

There would be no real way to get heroin as white as snow without some suspicion...

That’s just evil to not say it is fentanyl.

Or he himself was sold the fent as dope and only knew what the people told him... Leading to accidental death...
 
Oh shit! My home town made BL!

That`s pretty crazy that this dude was selling pure fent. Not only was this dude totally irresponsible but he could have made a shit ton of money by cutting the hell out of it. Plus make it a bit safer. Fuck.I wonder how many folks he`s sold to already that are dead in their apartments.

About 8 or 9 years ago when I was still shooting heroin I was getting these bags of "china white". They came in clear mini ziplocks rather than the normal folded wax paper type bags. And they were half the normal size too. Every time I used one of those bags I`d nod out almost right away.
In a way I found it much less enjoyable than heroin.
 
I want to see a real lab work up on this....usually the illicitly produced fent isnt pure white from the pics ive seen. Either way if this low level guy has a possible 20g of the stuff, theres gotta be a ton of it somewhere. Not to mention the acetylfent that was going around

You don't even get a chance to feel the rush or high. I overdosed on bag that was just cut with Fentanyl and all I remember was injecting, putting the needle down, and waking up on the side of the road with my friend pouring water on me and slapping my face.

The average dealer can't cut Heroin with Fentanyl accurately nor can they manage to put out a safe bag of just plain Fentanyl.
 
Eh they sell it as dope its mainly fetnyl been on it for 6 months now my dudes dry and i cant find aything close to it
 
What a moron. Hopefully they got it before it could get to anyone.

Fentanyl is approximately 100 times more potent than morphine,[10] with 100 micrograms of fentanyl approximately equivalent to 10 mg of morphine and 75 mg of pethidine (meperidine) in analgesic activity.[11][dead link] It has an LD50 of 3.1 milligrams per kilogram in rats, and an LD50 of 0.03 milligrams per kilogram in monkeys.

What does this even mean? His scanner has the same presets as one in the PD?

Why the fuck would someone sell pure fentanyl as heroin? No dealer wants to kill all of their customers, that just doesn't make sense. Maybe this undercover cop was a real fucking arsehole and he thought he'd give him a goodbye deal.
 
It means that he is listening to the dispatch at buffalo police dept talking to the officers. say there channel is channel 16. well his is set to the same thing so if they are coming to his location or something like that and say communicate about it on the radio then he will know. he hears what dispatch hears, at least im pretty sure how it goes down.
 
I was thinking computer scanner, not radio scanner. They are all encrypted in Australia, so there's no use having a CB to monitor police radios any more here
 
I had some all white dope the other night. Pure white and it actually cut through some of the mmt. Wasn't bad shit. Don't see too much pure white around here...turned to a slightly yellow shot.
 
I'm skeptical about he claim it was 100 percent fentanyl. If that was true there would be a shit ton of dead addicts directly connected to dude. I bet the reporter or cops misunderstood the science. The fentanyl was probably cut with something inactive. So technically it was "pure" fentanyl in that it contained no other drugs but it did have filler mixed with it. Other wise just handling the drug to bag it up would be suicidal!
 
I'm going to agree with the above posters and call bullshit on the "100 percent pure fentanyl."
 
I question if it was actually pure "fent" or not. there is no way this 20yr old dealer knew how to do that or would be able to get it and do it.

here in Boston right now all the dope is white as a ghost; all dope is heavy fent based. my drug tests come back w/ heavy fent according to my sub Dr. he knows I shoot fent so he goes out of the way to test specifically for it. I am not buying patches but buying dope that I know is laced; its truly white as a ghost and when the water goes in it just looks like skim milk in a spoon.

man, once you go fent its hard to go back to "regular" dope. you get such a killer high from fent (truly killer to some because there have been many OD's in MA) that its hard to go back to regular dope, man. you just need to be aware you are shooting fent and know that you cannot blast your typical half G type shot; I could usually shot a G of "good" dope in 2-3 shots. but a G of fent laced dope will get me 6-7 shots and last all day for the same price.
 
If this trend continues [ cutting smack with fentanyl ] , and I don't see why it won't as it considerably ramps up profit margins , we will start seeing many more ODs and deaths . One problem is the difficulty of creating an homogenous cut - because of the extreme potency of fentanyl the likelihood of hot spots within the mix is very real possibility .
Such are the dangers of this alarming trend certainly a re-think on heroin laws is overdue [ and all drugs ] to ensure the safety of users and harm minimization ; and above all - to get rid of dealers like this guy for good .
