New opioid stronger than fentanyl found in Los Angeles; wildfires near Malibu force evacuations
- A new opioid, cychlorphine, has been identified in Los Angeles and is stronger than fentanyl.
- Cychlorphine can stop a person from breathing even in extremely small quantities and may be present in illegal drugs.
- A fast-moving fire near Malibu has forced evacuations due to strong winds.
- Stronger overnight winds threaten to spread the flames further, complicating the region's recovery from last year's deadly blazes.
- Authorities have issued warnings about the presence of cychlorphine in illegal drugs.
